Cariboo RD Budget Meetings Kick-off on Feb 25th

Courtesy of the Cariboo Regional District:

The Cariboo Regional District will be hosting three meetings next week as part of the 2014 Budget Consultation process. It is extremely important for residents to attend their sub-regional budget consultation meeting and have the opportunity to provide feedback and suggestions to the CRD’s Board of Directors about the proposed budget and business plans before they receive final adoption on March 28, 2014. Be sure to have your say!

Meetings will take place as follows:

North Cariboo
Tuesday, Feb. 25 – 4-7 p.m. - Presentation at 5:30 p.m.
Quesnel Council Chambers
410 Kinchant Street, Quesnel

South Cariboo
Thursday, Feb. 27 – 4-7 p.m. - Presentation at 5:30 p.m.
100 Mile House Council Chambers
385 Birch Avenue, 100 Mile House

Central Cariboo & Chilcotin
Saturday, March 1 – 1-4 p.m. - Presentation at 2:30 p.m.
Cariboo Regional District Board Room
180 D North Third Avenue, Williams Lake

The meetings are designed to explain the CRD’s budgets for the services that it provides to Regional District residents. Traditional Town Hall meetings are now held at the beginning of the budgeting process in September and October.

Once all three meetings have taken place, the presentation will be posted on the CRD website at cariboord.bc.ca as well as the budget consultation survey. If you cannot attend your local session, please feel free to view the information online, and fill out a survey online or return it to your local CRD office by March 4, 2014. Further information is also available by calling 250-392-3351 or toll free at 1-800-665-1636.


The Cariboo Regional District currently provides more than 100 local government services to taxpayers including fire protection, land-use planning, solid waste management, and invasive plant management as well as access for residents to libraries and recreation facilities.
