Key facts

  • Steve Desroches is the Councillor for Riverside South-Findlay Creek on Ottawa City Council, representing Riverside South-Findlay Creek.
  • Municipal councils handle local matters: property tax, zoning and building permits, garbage/recycling/water, snow removal, local bylaws (noise, parking, pets), and parks and recreation. For health care, tenant disputes, or ODSP/OSAP, write to your provincial representative instead; for immigration, federal taxes, or passports, write to your MP.
  • Identify yourself as a resident: full name, home address, and which ward or the general city if the seat is city-wide, so staff can confirm you're within Ottawa. Constituent mail is prioritized.
  • Letters to municipal councillors need regular postage — there's no postage-free rule at the municipal level (unlike mail to federal MPs).
  • Prefer email? [email protected] reaches the same office — but a physical letter is harder to overlook, especially ahead of a council vote.
  • PostPal prints your letter and deposits it with Canada Post the next business day for $6 — no printer, envelope, or stamps needed.

How to send your letter

  1. 1

    Check it’s a municipal matter

    Ottawa council can act on local files: property tax, zoning and permits, garbage/recycling/water service, snow removal, local bylaws, and parks. If your issue is health care, a tenancy dispute, or ODSP/OSAP, that's provincial — write to your MPP/MLA instead; immigration, EI, or passports go to your federal MP.

  2. 2

Common questions

What is Steve Desroches's mailing address?

Steve Desroches, Councillor, 110 Laurier Avenue West, Ottawa ON K1P 1J1.

Should I write to my councillor, my MPP, or my MP?

Depends on the issue. City council is municipal: property tax, zoning, garbage/water, snow removal, local bylaws, parks. Your MPP/MLA is provincial: health care, education, housing and tenant disputes, ODSP/OSAP. Your MP is federal: immigration, taxes, EI, passports. Name the program — the wrong office will redirect you, but starting in the right place is faster.

Do I need a stamp to write to Desroches?

Yes — mail to municipal councillors takes regular postage; there's no postage-free rule at the municipal level. If you'd rather skip the stamp and printer entirely, PostPal prints and mails your letter for $6 flat.

Do I have to live in Riverside South-Findlay Creek to write to Desroches?

No, but ward-specific casework is normally only taken up for residents of Riverside South-Findlay Creek. If you live elsewhere in Ottawa, your own ward councillor is the better first contact — or write to Desroches specifically about a citywide issue.

Will Steve Desroches actually read my letter?

Constituent mail is logged by council office staff, and issues tied to an upcoming agenda item get flagged directly. Include your return address — PostPal prints yours automatically — so a reply has somewhere to go.
