City Council Preview: Monday February 24, 2020



Presentations will make for much of the course for tonight's Prince Rupert City Council session, with  a number of information sharing themes to be explored on the night.

The first will come as part of the Committee of the Whole process, when School District 52 will make a presentation to Council, with the District noting at its own meeting of earlier this month, of plans to share some notes on the plans for replacement of Prince Rupert Middle School at tonight's Council session.

During the Regular Council Session, the Councillors will receive a string of reports from the City Planner related to a number of property variance permit requests.

Council will also hear two reports from the City's Financial Officer, the first related to the request for a  Loan Authorization Bylaw for the Woodworth Dam Replacement project; the second report a request for a Loan Authorization Bylaw for work on the Solid Waste infrastructure project at the Ridley Island Landfill site.

As well, The City's CFO, Ms. Corinne Bomben will request a delay of any direction to staff from City Council when it comes to the 2020 Budget until after public consultation and the release of the final BC Assessment values.
