The City is continuing to inform residents and members of the media when Councillors provide a notice of motion and the next Council Meeting is more than one week away.

On July 17, 2026, Councillor Clark, via email, submitted the following notice of motion: That the 20-day notice period requirement in section 119(9) of the Procedure Bylaw be waived; and That the Mayor, on behalf of City Council, write a letter of endorsement for the Rotary Club of St. Albert and their People of Action Group’s application to designate St. Albert as a City of Peace under the International Cities of Peace initiative.

Past practice was for Councillors to read notices of motion into the public record near the end of each regularly scheduled Council Meeting. This practice will continue and works well in situations where Council Meetings take place in consecutive weeks.

However, in situations where Council Meetings do not take place in consecutive weeks, the City will be issuing a news release to inform residents and members of the media of any notices of motion received in the previous week.
