The Council adopted minutes, approved amendments to the Community Garden Policy, and awarded the tender for the Price Bay Sanitary Lift Station Upgrade ($321,307.70). Significant discussion centered on parking issues near View Royal Elementary on Rudyard Road, resulting in a resolution for the Mayor and staff to meet with School District No. 61. Bylaw No. 955 (Sanitary Sewer Rates) passed three readings. Bylaw No. 956, granting a permissive tax exemption to the Extreme Outreach Society, was defeated by a 3-2 vote. Council also approved a $1,000 grant-in-aid for the Esquimalt Anglers' Association.
