Attached is a copy of CRD Bylaw No. 4166 at third reading. Please place this Bylaw on your next Council agenda with a request to give consent to the adoption of the Bylaw in accordance with Section 346 of the Local Government Act.

The purpose of the Bylaw is to provide for an annual memorial scholarship for youth entering a career in law enforcement, and to amend the Traffic Safety Commission Establishment Bylaw. The scholarship, to be named the Constable Sarah Beckett Memorial Scholarship, would raise awareness of traffic safety issues and the community service provided by our police.

In order to amend the establishing bylaw of this service, consent is required from 2/3rds of participants.

As background, please find attached staff reports to the CRD Board March 8, 2017 as well as the criteria for the scholarship.

If you require additional information prior to forwarding this request to Council, or if you wish to have CRD staff present when Bylaw No. 4166 is presented to Council, please let me know.

Yours sincerely,
