The Resort Municipality of Whistler (RMOW) has several working groups that bring together RMOW staff, staff from external organizations, and community members with relevant interests or expertise.
Working groups collaborate on operational issues with RMOW staff that involve or impact multiple departments and organizations. Working groups usually focus on topics that benefit from broad insights or address challenges that cannot be solved by a single organization. Working groups do not include Council representatives.
