Roles and Responsibilities of Council

Our council is the governing body of the municipal corporation and the custodian of its powers, both legislative and administrative.

The Municipal Government Act (MGA) states that councils can only exercise the powers of the municipal corporation in the proper form, either by bylaw or resolution.

Under the MGA, councillors have a duty to:

• Consider the welfare and interests of the municipality as a whole and to bring to council's attention anything that would promote the welfare or interests of the municipality.
• Participate generally in developing and evaluating the policies and programs of the municipality.
• Participate in council meetings and council committee meetings and meetings of other bodies they are appointed to by council.
• Obtain information about the operation or administration of the municipality from the Chief Administrative Officer.
• Keep in confidence matters discussed in private at a council meeting until discussed at a meeting held in public.
• Perform any other duty or function imposed on councillors by this or any other enactment or by the council.
