This information includes, but is not limited to, paper files, pictures, audiotapes, photographs and electronic records. Some of this information is archived at the Timmins Museum. This function review develops and implements policies, procedures and practices related to records management, corporate archives and the implementation of the Municipal Freedom of Information & Protection of Privacy Act.
Maintenance of the City’s retention by-law and making recommendations on revisions to this by-law. This function also manages the inactive records in our storage facilities, which includes such activities as the annual disposal of active records, maintenance of permanent records, annual transfers of active files, etc.
Our municipality owes its existence to the initiative and efforts of prospectors by the names of Harry Preston, Sandy McIntyre and Benny Hollinger, who in the early 1900′s discovered gold. Financiers Noah and Henry Timmins were responsible for the development of the Hollinger Mine and, thus, the name Timmins came to the forefront and has been our proud designation ever since.
