Huron East Questions Procedural Bylaw

Huron East councillors are looking for a little clarification before they approve their new procedural bylaw.

Parts of the new procedural bylaw are modelled after the bylaw in Perth County but there was some confusion regarding changing a vote.

Mayor Bernie MacLellan says one clause stated a majority was enough to change a vote and another stated a two-thirds majority was required.

MacLellan says they've asked staff to get that cleared up and they expect to pass their new procedural bylaw at their next meeting.
