Council Meetings & Minutes
Leduc City Council meetings are held in Council Chambers at the Leduc Civic Centre. Meetings are held three Mondays per month, unless otherwise stated in the schedule. They are open meetings and the public is welcome to attend. Council meetings are also live streamed through our website, and we encourage the public to watch online.
Statement from Mayor Young about public commentary:
There have been some questions about public commentary being removed from Council meetings. This is a result of the events of our June 25 Council meeting where members of Council and City of Leduc staff were threatened and harassed during public commentary. During our Special Council Meeting on July 6, it was clearly stated that with the present Council meeting format the safety of Council and staff could not be guaranteed.
It is a very sad day in the history of this City that City Council meetings are no longer safe to attend for councillors or city staff. As a result, staff attend Council meetings virtually except for the City Manager. Even though public commentary has been suspended, the City Clerk’s office will continue to make sure any person or group who want an opportunity to present to Council will have one.
Council is discussing ways to bring public commentary back, but in a way that balances opportunities for the public to speak directly to Council with ensuring safety for all. After a Special Council Meeting on Sept. 14, we have directed City Administration to conduct a safety and security audit of Council Chambers that includes recommendations, and draft amendments to the Council Procedures Bylaw.
Meetings are live streamed through our website, with best viewing results on Google Chrome. For access, please scroll down to ‘Upcoming Meetings.’ Online views can access the live stream through ‘List’ or ‘Calendar’ by selecting the corresponding date and time. Although council meetings are live streamed, presentations and in-person attendance are still welcome. Learn more about how you can apply to make a presentation to council.
All council meetings are recorded and will be made available following each council evening. Meetings recorded prior to March 2021 are available through Vimeo.
