Huron County, Ontario – At the 2026 Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) Conference, Meighan Wark, CAO for the County of Huron, was re-elected to the AMO Board of Directors, representing the County Caucus. As a member of the AMO Board, Wark will help set AMO’s policy direction and advance the priorities of Ontario’s 444 municipalities.
“Hundreds of municipal governments from across Ontario benefit from their membership in AMO. At the same time, their contribution and commitment to working together makes all communities stronger. I am pleased to welcome Meighan Wark to our Board,” said AMO President, Riley Brockington.
AMO is a non-profit organization representing 444 municipalities across Ontario. It brings municipalities together to strengthen their collective voice and ensure the perspectives of cities, towns, rural communities and northern municipalities inform provincial and federal decision-making.
Municipalities are stepping up to meet the needs of their communities — investing in infrastructure, completing major capital projects and delivering essential services — but they cannot do it alone. “Long-term, sustainable provincial funding is needed to ensure municipalities can continue to deliver the infrastructure and services Ontarians rely on,” said Brockington.
“I’m honoured to continue representing the County Caucus on the AMO Board and to bring the perspectives of Huron County and rural municipalities to the table,” said Meighan Wark. “Municipalities are facing increasingly complex challenges, from infrastructure and housing to the delivery of essential services. Working together through AMO gives us a stronger voice and an opportunity to advocate for practical, sustainable solutions that meet the needs of our communities.”
The County of Huron joins AMO in calling for action on municipal priorities that affect communities across Ontario, including:
- Long-term, predictable infrastructure funding to support housing, economic growth and the infrastructure communities need;
- Full provincial funding for health and social services that are provincial responsibilities; and
- Coordinated action and investment from all orders of government to address Ontario’s growing homelessness crisis.
