Title
Revised Elected Official Remuneration Policy C-AD22
Proposed Motion
That the revised Elected Official Remuneration Policy C-AD22 be approved, as presented.
Body
Administration Recommendation
Administration supports the proposed motion that the revised Elected Official Remuneration Policy C-AD22 be approved, as presented.
Purpose
Administration reviews Council policies and identified that the Elected Official Remuneration Policy C-AD22 had been approved in early 2019. Section 7 of this policy directs that the Elected Official Remuneration Policy C-AD22 be reviewed the third year of each council term. Administration recommends that section 7 of the policy be revised to conduct a review mid-term of a four-year council term. A mid-term review would allow administration an opportunity to recruit a third-party for a review and present findings and recommendations to Council pertaining to remuneration that would be in effect for the newly elected Council as intended.
Summary
After the 2017 municipal election, a Council Remuneration Committee was established in 2018 to review Policy C-AD22 that was comprised of administration and public members. The Committee presented a review of the Elected Official Remuneration Policy C-AD22 and recommendations to Council at the regular meeting of Council on March 26, 2019. Council approved the Elected Official Remuneration Policy C-AD22 at that meeting.
