Council expenses consist of two components:
The annual local expense budget is 10% of the Council member’s salary for expenses incurred in the Lower Mainland while representing the City of Vancouver. This budget can be used to pay for parking, transportation, business meetings, community events, and memberships.
The annual travel and training expense budget enables Council members to attend meetings, events, and conferences outside the Lower Mainland. Council members must obtain Council approval to attend these events and have the travel expenses covered by the travel and training budget.
Datasets are updated quarterly, and available in CSV, XLS, and XML formats.
The current members of City Council submit annual financial disclosure statements each year on January 15 to comply with the BC Financial Disclosure Act.

Original signed annual financial disclosure statements are available for inspection at City Hall. Phone 3-1-1 for more information.
