Description
In July of 2011, the former Minister of Municipal Affairs ordered an inspection to be conducted on the affairs of the Town of Redcliff. This came as a result of a request from council and a sufficient petition from the residents of the Town of Redcliff (Town). Municipal Affairs inspectors undertook a review of the Town's management and operations and found that, while the Town has been managed and operated for the most part in a manner that is in accordance with the Municipal Government Act, in some instances the Town has been managed and operated in an irregular and improper manner. This report makes 41 recommendations that endeavour to assist the Town in addressing concerns brought forward by residents, and also makes a recommendation to the Minister to issue directives to address those items that are of a more serious nature or a direct contravention of the Municipal Government Act.
