Procedural Bylaw review
In 2021, Guelph reviewed their Procedural Bylaw, specifically looking at:
- Participation in Council meetings such as delegation, presentations, written submissions and petitions and electronic participation in meetings.
- Council being able to vote by proxy if they are absent from a meeting.
- Any other parts of the bylaw you think can be improved.
