City Manager Rob Buchan has Council's list and he's probably checked it twice.
Tonight, we may learn if City Council will take his advice.
Strategic Planning is on the Agenda for tonight's Prince Rupert City Council session, with the Council members to receive a report from City Manager Rob Buchan, who will offer up some recommendations towards the civic government's plans for 2022.
The report a summary of Council planning workshops in the summer and a listing of where the plans and projects ahead rank on the city's To Do list.
With the report noting that some of the short term priorities identified by staff as underfunded and if Council wishes to move forward with the will require an increase in taxation, or alternative funding options.
