Negative - Alternate Director Forseth

Editor's Note - Staff advised the Joint Committee that the intent was to engage groups that managed rural recreation assets like Esler Complex and Mountain Bike trails and revisit the Parks, Trails and Outdoor Recreation Master Plan (PTORMP) from 2010 and other rural recreation assets with the Central Cariboo Recreation service area but there was no intent to talk with the general public.  I felt that if we were going to engage different groups as it related to Rural Recreation Assets and the PTORMP, the general public should have a say into any amendments to the PTORMP and Rural Recreation asset priorities in 2015 and future years in 2014 … This recommendation will be considered for endorsement either at the Feb 14th or March 7th Cariboo RD Board meeting
