Saskatchewan legislation recognizes municipalities as a level of government with considerable autonomy to govern local matters.
Municipal council members are elected to make decisions that they consider appropriate and in the best interests of the municipality.
Their decisions affect the services that people rely on every day, which can include:
- drinking water;
- sewer and waste;
- streets;
- garbage removal; and
- recycling.
These decisions may be based, in part, on citizen’s expectations. They can also be based, in part, on a council member’s judgment.
