The documents must be made available for public inspection during business hours, under the Financial Disclosure Act, but the act does not specify that they must be available online. To view mayor and councillors’ financial disclosure documents, residents must make an appointment to visit city hall, but the building is closed to walk-in traffic during the pandemic. The Grumpy Taxpayer$ are raising concerns about having to go in person to see the documents during a pandemic, and have filed the complaint. Stan Bartlett, former chair of the Grumpy Taxpayer$, said the city’s decision not to share the documents online is consistent “with a general lack of transparency in Langford.”
