CRD ELECTS COMMISSION MODEL OF GOVERNANCE FOR SEWAGE TREATMENT
Jul 28, 2010
CRD COMMITTEE MEMBERS PASSED A MOTION WEDNESDAY FAVOURING A COMMISSION MODEL OF GOVERNANCE FOR SEWAGE TREATMENT IN THE REGION.
THE COMMISSION IS THE RECOMMENDED GOVERNANCE BODY THAT WILL SEE THE PROCUREMENT PHASE OF THE SEWAGE TREATMENT PROCESS--THE OTHER OPTION WAS CORPORATION.
COUNCILOR LYNN HUNTER WAS IN FAVOUR OF THIS METHOD AND SAYS THEY WILL ALSO ELECT TWO REPRESENTATIVES WHO ARE YET TO BE DETERMINED
"Safeguarding the public interest and the community values that have been expressed through this process that there will be elected representatives on that body."
THE DECISION WAS SPLIT WITH FOUR DIRECTORS VOTING AGAINST THE METHOD.
THE PROVINCE DOES NEED TO AGREE ON THE GOVERNANCE MODEL AS A ONE-THIRD PARTNER IN THE PROJECT.
