Some members of the public could be banned from live meetings of council, which is considering taking legal action
Some members of the public could be banned from live meetings of Langford council, which says it’s considering legal action after a councillor was photographed and harassed at home during the evening hours.
“When confronted, this person began harassing the councillor about personal matters that were completely unrelated to city business.” The council member reported the incident to West Shore RCMP. The hastily called news conference came the day after protests involving about 50 people erupted outside city hall over council’s proposed budget and unprecedented tax increases. Opponents of the new council have disrupted council meetings for more than a year.
He said that could include banning individuals who “behave inappropriately” from in-person attendance at council, or seeking “stronger remedies” through the courts.
