The County of Simcoe has formed a Joint Compliance
Audit Committee (CAC) with local municipalities as required under the Municipal
Elections Act. The participating municipalities in the Joint CAC are Adjala-Tosorontio,
Bradford-West Gwillimbury, Clearview, Collingwood, Essa, Innisfil, Midland, New
Tecumseth, Oro-Medonte, Penetanguishene, Ramara, Severn, Springwater, Tay,
Tiny, Wasaga Beach, and the City of Orillia. The committee members were all appointed by
by-law in each participating municipality.
The Joint Compliance
Audit Committee is a public process and the Committee is responsible for
reviewing compliance audit applications submitted by an elector who believes on
reasonable grounds that a candidate or third party advertiser has contravened
the provisions of the Municipal Elections Act relating to campaign or
advertising finances.
All
financial statements submitted by candidates and registered third party
advertisers are available on the Township's website. An individual who is an
eligible elector is able to submit an application to the Joint Compliance
Audit Committee if the individual believes on reasonable grounds that a
candidate or registered third party advertiser (TPA) has contravened a section
of the Municipal Elections Act only as it pertains to election campaign
finances. An application may be filed to the Committee, even if a candidate or
TPA has not filed their financial statements.
The
County of Simcoe Clerk will facilitate the compliance audit process. Within ten
(10) days of the municipal clerk receiving the application, it will be provided
to the Joint CAC members. All reasonable notice of meetings to the public,
candidate or TPA, and applicant will be provided.
Questions regarding this process can be directed
to the Township Clerk
