Local Gov't Mtgs - Wk of Aug 19-23

All local governments in the Cariboo-Chilcotin (except School District #27/28) are meeting this upcoming week as follows:

Wells - Regular Meeting on Tuesday, August 20th in Wells Council Chambers at 7pm (4243 Sanders Avenue, Wells)

Quesnel - Committee of the Whole & Special Open Council Mtg starting at 7pm in Quesnel Council Chambers at Quesnel City Hall (2nd Floor - 410 Kinchant St, Quesnel).  Items on the Agenda include:

Committee of the Whole:

a) Presentation from Telus on Wireless Services/Towers in Quesnel region
b) Permissive Exemptions
c) Curbside Recycling

Special Council:

a) DP/DVP for Motherlode Car Wash
b) 3rd Reading of Tax Sale Properties Extension of Redemption Period Bylaw

d) License of Occupation -- Pioneer Park

Full Agenda for above here

Williams Lake - Committee of the Whole meeting at 6pm in the Rick Hansen Boardroom at WL City Hall (450 Mart St).  Items on the Agenda include:

a) New Fire Protection and Control Bylaw.  Bylaw to include provision for allowance of small backyard fires.  A welcome relief in the summer to City residents... :)

b) Discussion of 'Leaders Moving Forward' group and authorization of payment for reasonable expenses for this group, as requested by Councillors Ivan Bonnell/Surinderpal Rathor.  The group is currently designated as a 'Community Committee' and not an internal Council Committee which means, by practice, Leaders Moving Forward would not normally receive payment for food and other related expenses however Council could pass the following motion to fix the issue:

"THAT Council authorize reasonable expenses for the Leaders Moving Forward Committee"

And that would easily solve the issue raised by Councillor Rathor at the Aug 13th Council Meeting over this group's payment for food at their previous meetings
