Last week, we provided an update on the launch of a regulatory registry consultation on model code of conduct and integrity commissioner processes and protocols. Building on our previous submissions related to Bill 9, Municipal Accountability Act, we intend to submit recommendations for improvement and want to hear your feedback.
We want to understand how the proposed new code and processes will impact municipal operations, existing procedures, and how we can strengthen what is being proposed to better protect municipal staff well-being.
Our team has put together the following initial comments and analysis* on the proposed regulations along with a survey to gather further input and perspective. Please take a few minutes to review our preliminary analysis, and please submit any additional feedback you may have via the survey no later than 5:00pm ET on Friday, September 4.
*Note: This document contains preliminary comments on the proposed regulations and does not reflect any final version of what AMCTO will submit through the consultation process.
All survey responses will remain anonymous and will only be reviewed by AMCTO policy and government relations staff. The survey should take no longer than 11 minutes to complete. Please note that feedback obtained via this survey may be included in our Association's final submission on the proposed Bill 9 regulations.
For more information or questions about this survey, please contact us. As a reminder, AMCTO is here to support you in ensuring the new framework has municipal staff's best interests in mind and is in place in time for the new term of council.
