Council Meetings
\n<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Town of Labrador City conducts municipal business through Public Council Meetings and Public Committee of the Whole Meetings. These meetings provide opportunities for Council to conduct Town business openly and transparently, consider matters affecting the community, and make decisions in accordance with the Town\u2019s Rules of Procedure and applicable legislation.<\/p>\n

All meetings of Council and Committee of the Whole are open to the public except where a meeting, or portion of a meeting, is lawfully closed in accordance with applicable legislation. Council and Committee of the Whole each meet at least monthly, and public notice of meetings is posted on the Town\u2019s website.<\/p>\n

Public Council Meetings<\/b><\/h2>\n

Public Council Meetings are where matters requiring the formal authority of Council are considered and decided. Council considers recommendations from Committee of the Whole, correspondence, motions, by-laws and other municipal business requiring Council approval.<\/p>\n

Council approves a regular meeting schedule annually. Meeting dates and information are available through the Council Calendar below.<\/p>\n

Public Committee of the Whole Meetings<\/b><\/h2>\n

Committee of the Whole is Council\u2019s primary forum for the review and discussion of Town business. It consists of all Members of Council and is chaired by the Mayor, Deputy Mayor or temporary chair, as applicable.<\/p>\n

Committee of the Whole may receive reports and delegations, review Town business, request additional information, refer matters to Town Administration and formulate recommendations. Where a matter requires the formal authority of Council, it is brought forward to a Public Council Meeting for consideration and decision. Recommendations of Committee of the Whole are not binding until adopted by Council where Council approval is required.<\/p>\n

Meeting Webcasts<\/b><\/h2>\n

Public Council Meetings are available by webcast, providing an opportunity for residents to follow Council proceedings online.<\/p>\n
