The Ministry of Municipal Affairs, in partnership with Local Government Management Association, has released a procedure bylaw best practice guide. The resource highlights the ways in which procedure bylaws support effective meetings and council and board decision making. Local governments that are amending or reviewing their procedure bylaws can use this information to develop a shared understanding of meeting rules and processes.
The guide explains procedure bylaw legislative requirements and provides best practices along with questions to facilitate council or board procedure bylaw conversations.
For questions about the guide, please email the Governance and Structure Branch or call them at (250) 387-4020.
