Report Overview
This report complies with the Municipal Act reporting requirements for Council remuneration
and expenses
1. Background
1.1 A schedule detailing the remuneration and expenses paid to each Member of Council
during 2022, in accordance with By-law #2011-005, as required by the Municipal Act,
2001, S.O. 2001, c.25, Section 284, is provided in Attachment #1.

Corporation Board of Directors from January 1 to December 31, 202 2, is provided in
Attachment #2.
1.3 As per Resolution #GPA-455-95, passed by Council on July 15, 1995, the Regional
Municipality of Durham Report detailing the remuneration and expenses of the Members
of Council and Regional Council Appointees to Local Boards is to be reported. For the
fiscal year 2022, the Region’s report is not yet available. It will be provided under
separate cover.
2. Council Salary Reporting
2.1 Over the past several years, there has been a trend in Ontario municipalities towards
increasing the public disclosure of Council remuneration and expenses. To further this
initiative, beginning in 2019, the quarterly financial updates report includes highlights of
interest related to these expenses.
2.2 According to By-law #2011-005, Council members are entitled to a travel allowance to
compensate for travel related Municipal business within Municipal boundaries. In
recognition of travel restrictions imposed by COVID-19 and to reflect an increase in
virtual meetings and events, several councillors elected to forego all or portions of this
allowance in 2022.
3. Financial Consideration
