Wells/WL Councils' meet May 21st

With the long weekend upon us - only the District of Wells and the City of Williams Lake Councils' are meeting next week as follows:

Wells - Regular Meeting on Tuesday, May 21st at 7:00pm in Wells Council Chambers (4243 Sanders Avenue)

Williams Lake - Regular Meeting on Tuesday, May 21st at 6:00pm in WL Council Chambers (450 Mart St).  View the Agenda here.  Items on WL Council's agenda to consider include:

a) 2 Recommendations from Committtee of the Whole (Mobile Food Vendor & MOU for Community Gardens)

b) 5 Bylaws up for adoption

c) 2012 Audited Financial Statements

d) Request from Councillor Laurie Walters for up to $800 from her travel budget to attend the Women Transforming Cities conference on May 30th.

Editor's Note - based on the information that I've been able to research on this conference, if I was on Council - I would have opposed this on the grounds that the conference was being held the day before the FCM (Federation of Canadian Municipalities) conference which Mayor Kerry Cook is already authorized to attend.  In addition, I don't see, based on the information presented, where the information applies to a place like Wiliams Lake.  The conference is geared towards bigger centres like Prince George, Kamloops, Kelowna and Vancouver.  Read Councillor Walters' request here and conference details here

There is also a scheduled Public Hearing for Bylaw 2172 (David and Louise Campbell - 3020A Edwards Drive) and Bylaw 2176 (M.H. King - 4023, 4025, and 4029 Frizzi Rd, by Central Cariboo Transfer Station).  View the Agenda here

Please stay safe during the long weekend....
