The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington
By-law 2019-011
Being a by-law to amend the Procedural By-law, 2015-029.
Whereas, Bill 68, the Modernizing Ontario's Municipal Legislation Act, added Section
5(2.1) to the Municipal Conflict of Interest Act, regarding the consideration of penalty for
the member during a meeting;
And whereas current Clarington's Procedural By-law, 2015-029, would be in conflict
with the new provision;
Now therefore be it enacted that By-law 2015-029, Clarington's Procedural By-law, be
amended as follows:
1. That the following new section be added:
Section 7.2.1.1
Notwithstanding Sub -section 7.2.1, if the matter under consideration at a
meeting, or a part of a meeting, is to consider whether to suspend the
remuneration paid to the member under subsection 223.4 (5) or (6) of the
Municipal Act, 2001, the member may take part in the discussion of the
matter, including making submissions to council or the local board, as the
case may be, and may attempt to influence the voting on any question in
respect of the matter, whether before, during or after the meeting.
However, the member is not permitted to vote on any question in respect
of the matter. Additionally, in the case of a meeting that is not open to the
public, the member may attend the meeting or part of the meeting during
which the matter is under consideration.
2. That this by-law shall take effect on the date of passing.
Passed in Open Council this 25 day of February, 2019.
