We have a really big agenda to tackle today at Committee of the Whole. We asked staff to report on our Sustainability Strategy, develop a framework for addressing Air Quality, increase targets for Transit ridership, and address ongoing concerns on how we govern our utilities, especially Water and Sewer. Here's the link to the agenda: http://agendaminutes.comoxvalleyrd.ca/cvrdboardmeetings/default.aspx?MeetingID=2921&PrinterVersion=0&DocumentTypeID=1&AgendaDeadline=9/13/2019%201%3A29%3A43%20PM
Today at CVRD we will be considering:
1) Planning for public engagement and regulations of cannabis cultivation and sales in the rural areas.
2) Possible roles of CVRD in the future for smaller water and sewer systems in the rural areas.
Not a lot of items, but some very important and complicated topics!
