Resolutions
ABmunis uses a resolution process that enables our member municipalities to provide direction on what issues ABmunis should advocate for in search of solutions in partnership with the Government of Alberta, the Government of Canada, or other organizations.
The deadline for submitting a resolution was May 31, 2026. The submitted resolutions are currently being reviewed by ABmunis’ committees and Board and will be published in the Resolutions Book by the end of July 2026.
Emergent Resolutions
If your municipality wants to submit an emergent resolution, our Resolutions Policy requires that it:
- Be related to an issue of concern to municipalities that has arisen after or just prior to the May 31 resolution deadline, such that members could not submit it as a resolution in time.
- Have a critical aspect that needs to be addressed before the next Convention.
ABmunis is strict about these criteria, as members indicate they value time to review and consider each resolution. Members wishing to move an emergent resolution must meet all requirements of the Resolutions Policy and provide notice to ABmunis administration as soon as possible, with a deadline of noon the day before Convention opens.
Contact us at resolutions [at] abmunis.ca (resolutions[at]abmunis[dot]ca) for more information.
The status of our advocacy on past resolutions can be found in the report cards below or in our searchable Resolutions Library, or subscribe to The Weekly for regular updates.
