Term Limits For Councillor Boards And Committees | March 7, 2023 | Micah Quinn | Bridge City News

Lethbridge councillor John Middleton-Hope put forward a motion at council that there should be term limits for memberships on boards and committees for councillors.

This means members of council would serve a maximum three-year term with two councillors at a time. This would include the Lethbridge Housing Authority, Green Acres Foundation and the Highway 3 Twinning Association.

He also said each person should forego additional financial compensation for sitting on these committees and boards or instead donate the funds to a charity of their choice.

Middleton-Hope said he had recently come under fire for comments on why he had brought up the motion in the first place.

Council voted unanimously for the matter to go back to the Governance SPC and then be referred back to City Council by October 31st.
