Resolutions
ABmunis uses a resolution process that enables our member municipalities to provide direction on what issues ABmunis should advocate for in search of solutions in partnership with the Government of Alberta, the Government of Canada, or other organizations.
Vote Results of the 2024 Resolutions
The results of voting on the 2024 resolutions are listed below under the Resolutions Book section or visit our Resolutions Library.
All resolutions that were adopted have been sent by letter to the relevant ministry. Responses to the resolutions will be referred to the relevant Alberta Municipalities Standing Committee, which will make a recommendation on any further action to Alberta Municipalities Board of Directors.
2025 Resolutions Process
In January 2025, Alberta Municipalities will issue a call for resolutions to be considered at the 2025 annual Convention taking place in Calgary in November. That announcement will include any changes in the process, which is currently under review.
For more information on resolutions, contact us at resolutions [at] abmunis.ca (resolutions[at]abmunis[dot]ca) and subscribe to The Weekly for regular updates.
Emerging Issue? Consider an RFD
If your municipality has identified a pressing issue that cannot wait to be debated via resolution at Alberta Municipalities’ November 2025 Convention, then members may submit a Request for Decision for consideration at our Spring Municipal Leaders’ Caucus on March 6-7, 2025. Learn about the difference between resolutions and Requests for Decisions and other options for members to request action by Alberta Municipalities.
Request for Decisions must be submitted, along with proof of council endorsement, to advocacy [at] abmunis.ca (advocacy[at]abmunis[dot]ca) by February 18, 2025.
