9. Proposal for a Successor Organization

December 24, 1996 Files: 3258
In an Administrative Report dated December 24, 1996, the General Manager of Engineering Services, in consultation
with the General Manager of Community Services, presented a structure for the successor organization to the Fraser Basin
Management Board and recommended a source of funding. The following was presented for Council s CONSIDERATION:
A. THAT Council support a successor organization to the Fraser Basin Management Board with representation
through regional districts.
If (A.) is approved then staff RECOMMEND
B. THAT funding for the successor organization be applied through municipal levies.
C. THAT the $0.20 per capita financial contribution be contingent upon continued support from the federal
and provincial governments and include the GVRD s contributions to the Fraser River Estuary Management
Program and Burrard Inlet Environmental Action Plan.
D. THAT the new entity charged with overseeing the implementation of the Basin Plan include a coordination
role to ensure that the soon-to-be-finalized integrated Flood Hazard Management Strategy is implemented.
The City Manager commented that given the budget decisions which are required in 1997 and the City Choices
program to explore budget issues with the public, it would be preferable to defer this decision until February, when
Council will have set the overall 1997 budget. The GVRD has asked that the City provide its position by January 10.
This report accordingly is submitted now, to provide Council the opportunity to respond within the GVRD's time line.
However, the City Manager RECOMMENDED it be deferred until the last half of February, and that the General Manager of
Engineering Services report back on the saving which would flow to the City if a successor organization was not endorsed.
