Accountability
Gifts received by the Councillor
City Council is the governing body of The City of Calgary and the custodian of its powers, both legislative and administrative. To achieve democratic accountability and transparency, it is necessary that no individual or organization influence, or perceive to influence, Council activities in exchange for gifts and benefits. The Code of Conduct for Elected Officials Bylaw (26M2018) provides them with a clear process to report these gifts and benefits that it is common for them to receive in acting out their duties of office. See gifts received by ward organized by ward.
Ward visitors list
City Council is the governing body of The City of Calgary and the custodian of its powers, both legislative and administrative. The proper operation of democratic municipal government requires that elected officials be independent, impartial and duly responsible to the public. The Code of Conduct for Elected Officials Bylaw (26M2018) establishes and promotes ethical conduct standards for Members of Council in interactions with the public, all City employees, contractors, Council staff and all Members of Council. It also outlines certain rules of conduct for Members of Council so that they may carry out their duties, powers, and functions with impartiality and dignity, recognizing that the function of Members of Council is, at all times, service to the public. As part of this policy, Members of Council are expected to disclose a quarterly list of external visitors to The City (excluding Media), with whom they, or their assistants, have met in their offices. Linked here is the visitor lists by ward.
Expenses
Note: they include the expenses of the previous Councillor as well.
