In their own words, via the Town
Bruce County does not publish a description of this member on its council pages, or this record has not found one.
This council rarely calls recorded votes, so individual positions are only on the record where one was demanded. Under the Municipal Act that is the council's choice, not an omission in this record.
Substantive motions moved (all 3)
That bad debts for Brucelea Haven in the amount of $7,209.29 be written- off as per the balance at December 1, 2023, and the cost absorbed in the 2023 yearend surplus/deficit.
That staff be directed to review provisions regarding Notice of Motion and time limits for Delegations at Council, Committees and Public Meetings, and incorporate changes in the final by-law, if appropriate; and That the Procedural By-law, as presented, be recommended for approval, subject to any changes to the Notice of Motion and Delegation provisions deemed appropriate by the County Clerk.

What this does not measure
Motions moved is not a measure of effectiveness. Who moves a motion is often a seat convention or a committee role, and the member who does the work on a file is frequently not the one who reads it out.
Nobody is ranked against anybody. These figures are counted against this member's own meetings and are never totalled or compared.
Absence is not explained. The minutes record who was not there and almost never why. Illness, a declared conflict and a family emergency all appear the same way.
What was said is not here. This record reads the minutes, which record decisions, not debate.
Something wrong here?
If anything on this page is wrong, say so and it will be corrected and the correction recorded. Everything here is read from Bruce County’s own published documents — where those documents and this page disagree, the documents are right. How this record is made.
