The recording of Tuesday's heated Perth City Council meeting is unlikely be uploaded online, despite councillors passing a motion to make that process the norm.

Councillor transparency was the focus of the meeting with Lord Mayor Lisa Scaffidi forced to defend her integrity several times following a damning Department of Local Government report.

It found she had committed 45 "serious breaches" of the Local Government Act by failing to disclose travel-related gifts and contributions.

At the meeting councillors, Jemma Green, Reece Harley and Deputy Mayor James Limnios, who have all been critical of the Lord Mayor's behaviour, moved and passed eight motions aimed at improving public accountability and transparency.

One of those related to uploading audio recordings of meetings by the next business day on the Council's website.

But the ABC has been told that process is already being blocked with Tuesday's meeting unlikely to be posted online.

Critics have told the ABC they are outraged and claim under the Local Government Act, passed motions are effective immediately.

The City of Perth has released a statement saying it has implemented several transparency measures since January.

It said the other measures, including the uploading of audio recordings, a requirement travel paid for by a third party be approved by council and a register of interests for elected members and staff would be put in place as soon as possible.

Councillor Janet Davidson waited to the end of the meeting to move an urgent motion of no confidence against Cr Limnios, for only attending 30 per cent of council-related events.

It came after he last week asked for Cr Scaffidi to step aside while the State Administrative Tribunal investigates the allegations against her.
