City Council Preview: Monday, January 27, 2020

Presentations will make for much of the course for tonight's Prince Rupert City Council session, with two overviews on a pair of themes scheduled for the night.

The first will come as part of the Committee of the Whole process, when the members of Kaien Trails provide a community update on their work from 2019 and what's ahead for 2020 and beyond.

The second presentation will come as part of the Regular Council Session, when the Councillors receive an update on the findings of a project called the RCMP Situation Tables process.

The Director of Operations will seek the approval of a contract award for a study of some of the city's outfall system, as well as to provide an update on funding opportunities from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities.

Council members will also review a request for a letter of support from the Prince Rupert Golf Club, which is seeking funding from the Community Investment Fund towards the purchase of a golf simulator for the Club.
