Barrie city councillor Mike McCann has been charged with impaired driving and over 80.
McCann, 44, was charged by Barrie police following an incident on Saturday, Sept. 5.
The over 80 charge refers to a person having equal to or more than 80 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millitres of blood.
According to court documents, police allege McCann was operating a vehicle while his ability to do so was impaired by drugs or alcohol, or both, contrary to the Criminal Code.
BarrieToday made several attempts to contact McCann for comment, but messages were not returned.
The information was sworn to the courts Sept. 8, but does not contain any specifics about the allegations, such as where and when the alleged incident took place.
Barrie police communications co-ordinator Jennett Mays declined to provide any specifics to BarrieToday.
McCann, who was first elected to council in 2014 and represents Ward 10 in the city's south end, is scheduled to make his first court appearance in mid-November.
