Abstract:
Richard A. Beauchamp, City Clerk, City of Kelowna
This paper describes the process that was taken to develop a new Procedure Bylaw for the City of Kelowna.

One of the most difficult tasks facing an Administrator is performing the balancing act of providing Council with proper procedure guidelines to allow them to make fair and intelligent decisions for their municipality.
