Effective May 16, 2016, Marc Villeneuve assumes the role of Treasurer of the Town of Orangeville. Prior to his current position as the Director of Finance/Treasurer for the Town of Midland, Mr. Villeneuve worked with BDO Canada LLP in Alliston as the Accounting and Assurance Manager, and with BDO in Barrie as the Senior Accountant.

A Chartered Professional Accountant, Mr. Villeneuve holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from Laurentian University in his hometown of Sudbury. He has been accredited as a BDO Accounting and Assurance Specialist – which sets education, professional development and practical experience requirements on an annual basis.

Following the Town’s recruitment and selection process, Mr. Villeneuve was endorsed as the successful candidate by Orangeville Council at its April 18th meeting. The appointment will be formalized with the passing of a bylaw.

As Treasurer of the Town of Orangeville, Mr. Villeneuve will be responsible for the management and administration of the Treasury Department including the Information Technology division. The primary responsibilities of this position include overseeing the entire financial management of the Town including budgets, financial reporting, financial planning and forecasting and supervision of department staff.

Mr. Villeneuve says his spare time is devoted to family. Mr. Villeneuve and his wife Pam – and their three children under the age of 3 – reside in Midhurst.

“I am thrilled to be joining the Town of Orangeville as its Treasurer,” said Mr. Villeneuve. “It’s a beautiful, vibrant community with an abundance of charm. I look forward to working with staff and Council to contribute to its ongoing and future success.”

“I wish Marc Villeneuve all the best on his appointment to this key position of Treasurer, and I’m looking forward to working with him,” said Interim Chief Administrative Officer Ed Brennan. “He brings considerable accounting and municipal finance experience with him to maintain the exceptional service the Treasury Department has been providing and that residents deserve.”
