2016 UBCM Resolution Book Released

At next month's 2016 Union of BC Municipalities Convention in Victoria, delegates will consider 177 submitted resolutions covering a large number of different matters that are of interest to local governments' in BC.  View the full Resolutions Book here

The 3 Resolution Sessions at the 2016 UBCM Convention will be chaired by East Kootenay RD Area F Director Wendy Booth and vice-chaired by Fraser Fort George Area E Director/Chair Art Kaehn and they will be assisted by Strathcona RD Vice-Chair Jim Abrams, Invermere Mayor Gerry Taft and Central Coast RD Chair Alison Sayers

It wouldn't surprise me if the Convention fails to get through all 177 Resolutions as there is always a late UBCM Resolution or two that is introduced on the floor during the Resolution debates and thus there is not enough time to get through all submitted Resolutions... but we'll see what happens at the Convention

As I did for the 2015 UBCM Convention -- I plan to post here and on my Steve Forseth - CRD Area 'D' Director Facebook page daily reports from the Convention including passed/defeated UBCM Resolutions so stay tuned here
