Alberta Government Proposes Universal Code of Conduct for Municipal Councils
The Alberta government is introducing a single code of conduct for all local municipal councils, following the repeal of individual municipal codes last year. The new setup will use independent third-party investigators and an appeal process involving a provincial commissioner. Local leaders have mixed reactions, with some welcoming the third-party help and others calling for tougher penalties. Penalties will mirror past ones, with removal from council only in extreme cases. The changes also include a sunshine list for public disclosure of higher municipal staff salaries.
