COUNCIL CODE OF CONDUCT REVIEW

Page 10 of 15 RICHMOND COUNCIL CODE OF CONDUCT Adopted by Council: TBD Policy 1500: Introduction Attachment 3 Policy Manual As local government elected Council members ("members"), Richmond's City Council ("Council") recognizes that responsible conduct is essential to providing good governance for the City of Richmond. Members have committed to strive to ensure that the duties and obligations of Council are performed with highest ethical standards. Members respect one another, the public and staff and recognize the unique role and contribution each person has in making the City a better place to work and live. To this end, Council has adopted a Code of Conduct ("Code") which outlines the foundational principles and standards of conduct to which Council has committed. Application of the Code of Conduct This Code of Conduct applies to the members of Council and, where indicated, to any person appointed by Council to boards, committees, commissions, panels, or task forces ("appointees"). It is the individual responsibility of each member and appointee to uphold the Code in their dealings with other members, appointees, staff, and the public. Members and appointees must conduct themselves in accordance with the law. This Code of Conduct is intended to be developed, interpreted and applied by members and appointees in a manner that is consistent with all applicable Federal and Provincial Laws, as well as the bylaws and policies of the City of Richmond, the common law and any other legal obligations which apply. It must be noted that all legislation, including the Community Charter, overrides the Code of Conduct. This document is not intended to be punitive or disciplinary in nature.
