WL Council meets Tuesday & SD 28 Board meets Wed

With School District #27 on break until September and all other local governments on break until mid-July - Williams Lake City Council and School District #28 Board of Education are the only two local governments to meet next week.

Items on WL Council's Agenda include:

1) Delegations:

a) Todd Walters/Mark Everard from Tolko to make a public announcement in regards to the Lakeview Division (in my mind, it can only be one of three things -- a plant expansion, plant shutdown or plant move to Soda Creek Division.  At the time of this writing, there is no background information on Council's agenda

2) Business:

a) Development Permit (DP) for 'Audiotronic' (1148 Broadway Avenue South) - Councillor Hughes, as she has done before, will oppose this development permit and the connected OCP/Zoning Amendment Bylaws

b) Approval for DVP on Eagle Crescent
c) Approval for Traffic Control Recommendations in the City of Williams Lake
d) DP for new sign at Chevron Commercial Fuel (on old People's Foods site)
e) Adopt COW Recommendation to allow City Staff to look into purchase/long term lease of former School District #27 schools including Kwaleen, Glendale and Poplar Glade.  (Still not sure how acquiring these properties is in the City's best interests)

f) Letter from a 108 Mile resident about traffic concern about CN Rail crossing on Frizzi Rd

Finally - the City's new CAO Darryl Garceau (barring any unforseen circumstances) should be in attendance at WL Council's meeting Tuesday
