Proper flag etiquette is required to ensure that the presentation and cultural significance of the flags are honoured. The flying of flags at half-mast is a strong visual statement that speaks to the sense of loss shared by all citizens, and so must be implemented only in circumstances that have exceptional importance to the County. Strathcona County will lower flags to half-mast to commemorate solemn occasions. The lowering of flags to half-mast will be at the direction of the Province of Alberta and the Chief Commissioner. Purpose The purpose of this policy is to establish the protocols for flying flags at Strathcona County properties and facilities, for the appropriate lighting of Festival Place, and to ensure the use of Strathcona County’s flag poles is exercised in a consistent and appropriate manner. Definitions Community Group means a not-for-profit group, body, or organization established under an Alberta or Canadian statute or enactment, and that carries on activities benefitting the residents of Strathcona County; County means Strathcona County; RCMP means the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

  • COR 055-2015, Draft Council Policy No. 100-3-02 Flag Protocol
    Sa ,~A COUNCIL REPORT ABBOTSFORD Report No. COR 055-2015 Executive Committee July 3, 2015 File No: 0340-20 To: Mayor and Council From: Bill Flitton, Director, Legislative Services and George Murray, City Manager Subject: Draft Council Policy No. 100-3-02 (Flag Protocol) RECOMMENDATION THAT Council Policy No. 100-3-02 (Flag Protocol), referenced as Attachment "A" to Report No. COR 055-2015, be approved . SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE Council at its meeting of June 15, 2015 directed staff to prepare a Council Policy regarding the flying of Flags by the City. Referenced as Attachment "A" is a draft policy for Council's consideration. BACKGROUND The City of Abbotsford has a City Manager approved Procedure that addresses the various protocols involving "Flags" dating back to 1999. During the ensuing years, the Procedure was replaced by an informal protocol which provided a general guideline on the matter. One portion of the protocol was the concept that "City sponsored" Flags would be flown. The City has flown numerous different flags upon request, without adherence to the Procedure or protocol. Upon approval of a new Flag Protocol Policy, the City Manager will rescind the previous Procedure. DISCUSSION In 1996, City Council adopted a Policy (200-1-04) which eliminated the issuing of proclamations by City Council. The issuing of proclamations by City Council had become an administrative burden and it was seen to add minimal value to the operation of the City. The flying of Flags of organizations and groups is somewhat analogous to the issue of proclamations, and as such staff has prepared a policy that only specific flags may be flown on City Flag poles under the control of the City.
