Full RecordingCouncil Initiatives for 2021-2025 Financial Plan
Council reviewed potential initiatives for the upcoming Financial Plan, directing staff to focus investigation and cost estimation on the Atkins Road sidewalk extension.
"Significant debate occurred over the Chilco dog off-leash area (6), with Councillor Rogers advocating for immediate initiative inclusion, while the majority deferred it until staff could provide options following public engagement. Discussion on the Atkins Road sidewalk (7) noted its critical safety component, leading to the motion to seek design and rough construction cost estimates, despite Council concerns over budgetary pressures and connectivity plan prioritization."
