The 2011 City of Williams Lake Annual Report is now available for the public to view. It can be viewed here or members of the public can receive a paper copy at WL City Hall (450 Mart St) from 8:30-4:30pm Monday thru Friday

Williams Lake City Council will consider the Annual Report at a special meeting at 5 p.m on June 28 in Williams Lake Council Chambers. Members of the public are invited to attend the meeting and to present submissions or ask questions with respect to the report. Copies of the report will also be available at the meeting.

According to provincial legislation, a municipality must produce an annual report each year, and hold a public consultation session before it is submitted to the province. According to the Community Charter, it must contain:

• the municipality's audited annual financial statements for the previous year;
• a list of the permissive tax exemptions provided by council, and for each exemption, the amount of property tax that would have been imposed during the previous year if the exemption had not been granted;
• a report on the municipality's services and operations for the previous year;
• a progress report on the performance of the municipality with respect to established objectives and measures;
• a statement of objectives and measures that will be used as the basis for determining the municipality's performance during the current year and following year; and
• the details of any declarations of disqualification made against individual council members during the previous year.
