2018 UBCM Annual Report/Resolutions Book out!

Yesterday - the Union of BC Municipalities or UBCM released its' 2018 Annual Report and Resolutions Book to be considered at the 2018 UBCM Convention from Sept 10-14 at Whistler BC

View the book here

A great read.... for those in BC Local Government (Municipal Council or Regional Board) or interested in same... and looking forward to review all the Resolutions and formulating my thoughts as to how I'll be speaking to the ones that interest me the most...

As for submitted UBCM Resolutions from the Cariboo Regional District - we have submitted 4 this year for consideration at the UBCM Convention, as follows:

1) By-Election Not Required by Regional Districts in Local General Election Years
2) Parity in Regional Hospital Districts Capital Contribution
3) Provincial Financial Support During a State of Emergency
4) Amendments to Rural Dividend Fund Process

There are 208 UBCM Resolutions to be considered at this year's UBCM Convention but I know Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz, who is also Chair of UBCM's Resolution Committee and the other members of the UBCM Resolutions Committee, are up to the task to ensure we consider as many of them as possible....
