Chapleau Town Council has confirmed a new policy focused on respect.
Mayor Michael Levesque explains the "Respect Zone" - or "RZone" - policy outlines acceptable behaviour within the organization - employee-to-employee - and between the public and employees, with penalties for unacceptable actions.
Levesque notes it ties in with a by-law passed moments before, allowing the Township to administer notices under the Trespass to Property Act.
Levesque assures there is an appeal process when the policy's used.
The policy is now in effect, and should be available for the public to review soon.
