Council Policy
recommended action
Whereas a key part of Council’s job is to oversee the proper use of taxpayer’s resources;
Whereas this oversight should occur in a transparent, objective, and arms length manner; and
Whereas sitting members of Council should not be using Township resources to benefit their businesses;
Therefore be it resolved, that Council adopt a policy that sitting members of Council not bid on Township work nor use their businesses to bid on Township work for the duration of their tenure on Council; and
Be it further resolved that Council ask staff to revise all appropriate policies to include this provision and to ensure that sitting members of Council are not asked, or encouraged, to bid on Township work; and
Be it finally resolved that Council also adopt a policy that Township resources not be used to benefit the businesses of sitting members of Council throughout their time on Council.
