Hearing for Medicine Hat mayor’s judicial review set for August

Council on March 21 voted unanimously to remove Clark’s ability to chair meetings, speak to the media on behalf of the city and other restrictions.

That was after council found she broke its code of conduct during a tense exchange with City Manager Ann Mitchell during an August 2023 meeting.
