ENQUIRIES AND OTHER MATTERS

1. Provincial Budget/Infrastructure Funding File: 1756

Councillor Kennedy reported on a conference call earlier that day with the Union of BC Municipalities Executive and the Minister of Municipal Affairs, Cathy McGregor, and provided Council with a briefing on implications of the Provincial budget and infrastructure funding. She noted traffic fine revenues are going to be maintained at $13.2 million. There also will be no increased allocation of money for urban areas.

During discussion it was noted that as municipalities pay one-third of infrastructure costs, they should be included as equal partners in the decision-making process concerning infrastructure projects.

The Council adjourned at 12:04 p.m.
