Read by hand. We read Brooke-Alvinston's own documents for this site in October 2026; the Sources page lists which ones. The comparisons with other places still come from the Province's yearly reports.

How open is Brooke-Alvinston?

What a resident can find online without asking, as of October 7, 2026.

  • Partly
    Budgets posted online

    We did not find a budget book or an adopted-budget page on the Finance page. The 2026 draft budget presentation is inside the agenda package of the February 5, 2026 special council meeting, and the changes council made are inside the agenda package of February 12, 2026. A reader has to find both packages. Source

  • Partly
    Audited financial statements

    Statements for 2005 to 2025 are posted on the Finance page. The 2024 statements carry a clean opinion ("present fairly") from MNP LLP dated September 11, 2025. The 2025 statements are on that page, but the PDF is made of page pictures, so we could not read it and used no figure from it. Source

  • Partly
    Council pay and expenses (s. 284)

    A 2025 statement dated March 2, 2026 is posted. Its text does not line up into columns for every row (one row has fewer amounts than the others), so we did not copy any member's figures into this pack. Source

  • Yes
    Meeting agendas and minutes

    Agendas and minutes are posted as PDFs, on one page per year from 2017 to 2026. We did not check how soon after each meeting the minutes appear. Source

  • Unknown
    Integrity Commissioner and closed meeting reports

    The Integrity Commissioner page explains how to complain. We did not find any reports from the commissioner or a closed meeting investigator. Source

How to raise a concern

From the gentlest step to the most serious. Start at the top.

  1. Integrity Commissioner

    The Municipality says Council has appointed an Integrity Commissioner under section 223 of the Municipal Act, and that any report on a complaint is placed on the agenda of a public council meeting. We did not find any Integrity Commissioner reports on the site pages we read.
