Council

Who decides, and how you can hold them to account

Temiskaming Shores is run by an elected council of 7 people. They set the budget, approve big purchases and hire the senior staff who run the city day to day.

Current council

Names and official email addresses from the city's council page. None of the members lists a public social media account there.

    Council pay and expenses (s. 284)

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

  1. Integrity Commissioner

    The City says council has appointed an Integrity Commissioner to apply the Code of Conduct and the Municipal Conflict of Interest Act. The page links two published decisions and says "There are no reports at this time" under its reports heading. We did not read the decisions.
