Commentary
At the
beginning of each term, Members of Council will be expected to sign two copies
of the Code of Conduct (one for themselves and one for the Clerk's Office) to
convey to each other and all stakeholders that they have read, understand and
accept it.
A Code of
Conduct component will be included as part of the orientation workshop for each
new Council.
