REPORT SUMMARY 
The purpose of this report is to replace the Executive Committee acting as a meeting procedures bylaw to: 
 
 incorporate  provincial  regulation  changes  permitting  local  government  regular  business  electronic 
meetings; and 
 add provisions for public participation and meeting decorum 
 
BACKGROUND 
On June 17, 2020, Ministerial Order M192 was issued by the Province, which allowed all local government meetings 
and public hearings to be conducted electronically during the COVID-19 pandemic. That same day, Bill 10 Municipal 
Affairs  Statutes  Amendments  Act  was  approved  by  the  Province.  Bill  10  included  changes  that  would  allow 
permanent authority for municipal councils and “Trust Bodies” to choose,  with  amendments  to  local  meeting 
procedures  bylaws,  whether  to  conduct  regular  and  committee  meetings  electronically  (in  addition  to  special 
meetings already authorized).  
These  new  rules  came  into  force
