Welcome to the Town of Mattawa Website
If you come to the Town Hall, you'll be greeted by Francine, Lise or another member of our administration team. They will offer to provide you the information or service you are looking for. This website is not intended to replace our great people at the Town Hall, but sometimes we can save you a little time by making information available to you on the internet. Although still under construction, we hope our website helps save you some time with easy paths to follow.
To the left we have some quick link buttons that will take you to Council Meetings page, our Garbage / Recycling Collection schedules and other useful information.
Mattawa has plenty of history and is truly Voyageur Country to many things to offer to list here. If you are considering vacation or tourism destinations, learn more about what Mattawa has to offer by visiting our tourism website by clicking on the Voyageur Country button to the left of your screen.

The site is open daily from 11 am to noon, Friday afternoons from 3 pm to 4 pm but can be accessed by appointment throughout the week from 7 am to 4 pm.
