Councillor Joe Magliocca still owes $1,200 stemming from expenses he claimed since 2017, according to a new report.
The report was brought to the Coordinating Committee of the Councillors’ Office (CCCO) in January 2021.
The city’s priorities and finance committee will discuss the issue at a meeting on Tuesday.

The latest numbers come from hosting expenses, showing more than $3,300 were ineligible.
According to the administration, people who Magliocca claimed to be entertaining either couldn’t be contacted or denied the meetings.
The Ward 2 councillor has already paid more than $2,100 to taxpayers, leaving the rest of the tab to be paid by Mar. 31.
Last October, a report from the city council’s expenses working group looked at the airfare upgrades for Magliocca.
Pricewaterhouse Cooper (PWC) found Magliocca’s net travel claims totalled $36,687.10. The report said $20,782.38 in expenses were in line with councillor policies. The amount found to be out of line with policy was $5,657.
Magliocca has since repaid the majority of those costs, which included personal meals, hosting expenses and room accommodations.
In July 2020, PWC did a forensic audit of Magliocca’s expenses during his current term.
The expenses are also currently part of an RCMP investigation.
Magliocca has yet to publicly apologize for filing more than $9,000 in disqualified expenses.
