Alberta Municipalities is consulting with the Government of Alberta on the development of new provincial regulations following the passing of Bill 20, the Municipal Affairs Statutes Amendment Act.

ABmunis’ Board of Directors is seeking members’ feedback on the draft positions that will guide the association throughout the consultation process. An online seminar will take place on Thursday, July 18, from noon to 1:30 p.m.

The webinar, which is open to elected officials and administrators from all municipalities in Alberta, will cover:

  • Definition of "public interest" when cabinet considers calling for a public vote on removal of a councillor
  • Definition of "provincial government policy" when cabinet considers amending or repealing a municipal bylaw
  • Creation of an Integrity Commissioner's Office to manage code of conduct complaints
  • Election campaign expenses
  • Political parties in local elections
  • Joint Use Planning Agreements (JUPAs).
