Description

Minutes are important and vital documents. The minutes of a council or council committee meeting form the legal record of council actions, and provide the authorization for administration to implement decisions. As a public record, minutes also provide an open and transparent disclosure of council actions to the municipal residents and stakeholders. The minutes of council meetings provide a basis for the accountability of councils to their electors, and promote public confidence and trust in the leadership and governance of the local government.
