Mayor and Councillors
City of Maple Ridge, British Columbia.
Dear Mayor and Councillors,
Re: Building healthier communities and reducing intersection crashes in the City of Maple Ridge
The HUB Cycling Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows Committee is the local grassroots chapter of a not-for-profit advocacy group with a
mission to create healthier, happier, and more connected communities. HUB Cycling does this through education, research, events and
advocacy.
We seek the council’s help addressing the pressing issue of enhancing safety at our intersections. One such measure involves the
thoughtful reconsideration of allowing right turns on red lights.
Numerous studies have demonstrated that removing right turns on red lights can significantly decrease the number of crashes,
particularly between people driving and people walking, rolling or cycling.
According to ICBC, approximately 60% of crashes occur at intersections. Removing right turns on red lights is one way alongside
other measures that can reduce injuries and fatalities at intersections.
The evidence is clear. Right turn on red lights prohibitions save lives:
● In BC, an average of over 250 people have died, and over 3,000 have been hospitalized, every year due to road crashes,
costing the province $312 million in health care costs.1
● In Washington State, the Department of Transportation found that 20% of collisions involving a driver hitting a pedestrian or
cyclist occurred on a right turn.2
● Right turn on red has been identified as the most dangerous maneuver by people driving against vulnerable road users at
intersections, with a crash rate about three times higher than the level of exposure.3
● In 2018, Washington, D.C., banned right turns on red at 100 intersections. Data showed red-light conflicts between vehicles
and pedestrians were all but eliminated.4
In areas where right turns on red are allowed, people driving tend to prioritize watching for oncoming traffic from their left, often
overlooking people walking, cycling or using a wheelchair to cross the intersection from their right. An advance walk signal for
people walking and cycling can help mitigate this.
Especially in suburban municipalities like Maple Ridge, more people are now driving larger vehicles such as SUVs and pick-up
trucks, which have huge blind corners. Drivers of these types of vehicles are even less likely to notice people walking and cycling on
their right while they are making a right turn into their path.

HUB Cycling | 312 Main Street, Vancouver BC, V6A 2T2 Page 2
Other municipalities across Metro Vancouver, including the City of North Vancouver and the City of Burnaby, have adopted motions
or are exploring motions to remove right turns on red lights at high-crash intersections in their cities. Delta City council is considering
this as part of their Vision Zero Strategy.5 Furthermore, Montreal does not allow right turns on red at any intersections. HUB Cycling
is urging the City of Maple Ridge to take similar measures, while ensuring people cycling are exempt from right turn on red
restrictions (see Appendix for details).
The recent legislative development in Bill 23 - the 2023 Motor Vehicle Amendment Act, specifically Part 13, pertains to Pilot
Projects6. Section 305 (1) of this Act authorizes municipalities to establish pilot projects for the purposes of researching, testing or
evaluating any matter relating to this Act. We urge you to direct staff to explore the feasibility and potential benefits of launching such
a pilot project to prohibit right turns on red in your municipality, with an exemption for people on bikes. By leveraging the provisions
outlined in Bill 23, we have a unique opportunity to prioritize the safety of vulnerable road users and create a more inclusive and
sustainable transportation environment for all residents.
Please note that HUB Cycling is also advocating for province-wide legislation prohibiting right turns on red as part of its Motor
Vehicle Act Reforms. More information can be found at bikehub.ca/mva.
Together, we can work towards improving safety for all road users.
Sincerely,
HUB Cycling

Appendix
City of North Vancouver motion. Carried unanimously, Nov 6, 2023
Moved by Councillor McIlroy, seconded by Councillor Valente
WHEREAS in 2022 Council unanimously approved the City’s Mobility Strategy with the vision of having healthy streets that work for everyone
with specific actions outlined, including those in part 5C:
Supporting enforcement that reduces dangerous behavior and prioritizes protection for vulnerable road users;
WHEREAS in 2020 Council unanimously approved the City’s Safe Mobility Strategy, with a vision of safe streets for everyone, as places where
people of all ages and abilities can move safely and comfortably without risk of harm, no matter where they are going or how they get around;
WHEREAS people in the City often experience the behaviour of some drivers that exceed the posted speed limits and intersection requirements
found in the Motor Vehicle Act that may result in negative noise and safety impacts;
AND WHEREAS ICBC data indicates that there are more than 60 intersections in the City of North Vancouver that have had 20 or more casualty
crashes between 2018 and 2022;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT staff be directed to investigate and report back to Council on the implementation of no right turn on red
lights at all intersections where there were over 20 casualty crashes during 2018 to 2022;
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the Mayor write to the Provincial Government to request that speed and red light cameras be installed at
all locations in the City of North Vancouver where there were over 20 casualty crashes during 2018-2022, or that it allow BC municipalities to install
speed and red light cameras at their own cost and collect fines.
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY

CITY OF BURNABY: IMPROVING TRAFFIC SAFETY - COUNCILLOR GU AND COUNCILLOR
SANTIAGO
PURPOSE: To request the Mayor to write a letter to the Provincial Government to request improvements in traffic safety at intersections with high
casualties and fatalities, and to explore the feasibility of implementing no right turn on red lights at high pedestrian crash intersections.
RECOMMENDATION
THAT the Mayor write a letter to the Provincial Government to request the installation of speed and red light intersection safety cameras in the City
of Burnaby, prioritizing intersections with 50 or more crashes that resulted in injuries or fatalities from 2018-2022 and provide all revenue from
additional speed and red light cameras to municipalities as grants to be invested in traffic safety
improvements; and,
THAT staff be directed to explore the feasibility of implementing pedestrian safety measures such as no right turn on red lights at all intersections
where there were over 5 or more casualty crashes involving pedestrians from 2018-2022.
BACKGROUND
In 2021, Council unanimously approved the City’s Transportation Plan, which included a target of zero serious injuries and zero deaths by 2050.
These goals are inclusive of motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians.
ICBC data shows that in the City of Burnaby during the period of 2018-2022, there were 16,108 casualty crashes (crashes resulting in injury or
fatality), which averages to be 3,222 per year or 8.8 per day. Most crashes in British Columbia happen at intersections, and speed was the number one
contributing factor in fatal crashes in British Columbia and the Metro Vancouver region between 2018 and 2022. Speed cameras are shown to rank
among the most cost-effective interventions, with warning signs to let drivers know that the intersection has cameras. Stopping for red lights and
observing speed limits help to prevent collisions, and reduce the severity of injuries and fatalities if collisions occur. These cameras can be quickly
implemented, reduce preventable vehicular injuries and deaths, and provide revenue that could be directed towards more road safety initiatives, such
as addressing neighbourhood road safety infrastructure requests, including but not limited to sidewalks, pedestrian-controlled crossing signals, and
flashing beacons. Allowing right turns on red lights also increases the risk to vulnerable road users such as pedestrians, cyclists, seniors, and People
with Disabilities. The City of Burnaby can explore the feasibility of changing these rules where intersection casualty crashes are high.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
None.
DISCUSSION
Under the Motor Vehicle Act, the Provincial Government has authority over moving vehicular traffic. However, municipalities are at the frontlines of
and bear the costs of responding to vehicular collisions (i.e. fire, police) as well as infrastructure improvements in preventing incidents from
occurring. Advocacy towards the Provincial Government to ensure municipalities have the adequate tools to prevent serious injuries and fatalities is
necessary.
Disallowing right turns on red lights is in the jurisdiction of municipalities, and is one immediate step that the City of Burnaby can take towards
reducing the risk to vulnerable road users.

SUBJECT: 12297 222 Street and 22175 and 22185 123 Avenue
Minor Refinements to Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024 for the subject rezoning application was presented to the Committee of
the Whole Meeting on July 2, 2024. This addendum report discusses some minor refinements to Housing
Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024 that have been prepared to provide clarity on the intended renters for the Market
Rental Apartment Residential units within the building.
DISCUSSION:
In response to feedback received from the applicant after the presentation of Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-
2024 to the Committee of the Whole Meeting on July 2, 2024, staff propose minor refinements to Housing
Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024 to provide clarity on the Affordable Rental and the Market Rental Apartment
Residential units. The changes are to make the proposed Market Rental Apartment Residential units within the
development to be available for rent by all user groups (i.e. not restricted to senior citizens, people with a
disability or diminished ability, war veterans, or sponsored immigrants). Thus, staff propose the minor
refinements to Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024, as attached to this addendum report (see Appendices A
and B), that will restrict only the tenants for the Affordable Rental units to the proposed user groups (i.e., senior
citizens, people with a disability or diminished ability, war veterans, or sponsored immigrants).
CONCLUSION:
In summary, the proposed amendments to Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024 are minor and include further
artment Residential use for the subject properties (see Appendices A and B).

SUBJECT: First, Second, and Third Reading
Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024
12297 222 Street, 22175 123 Avenue and 22185 123 Avenue
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
An application has been received to rezone the subject site, located at 12297 222 Street, 22175 123 Avenue,
and 22185 123 Avenue, from RS-1 (Single Detached Residential) to CD-6-21 (Medium Density Mixed Use
Rental and Market Apartment Residential), to accommodate the future construction of an eight-storey
rental Apartment/Group Child Care Centre building comprised of the following:
1. a Group Child Care Centre on the second floor;
2. 106 rental dwelling units, including 54 affordable rental units and 52 market rental units, intended
to be utilized by senior citizens, people with a disability or diminished ability, war veterans and
sponsored immigrants;
3. four studio guest units to serve as temporary accommodations for visitors of tenants; and
4. ancillary office uses and other amenities for the primary housing use.
As the proposed eight-storey building contains 106 rental dwelling units, including 54 affordable rental
dwelling units, a Housing Agreement is required as a condition of the rezoning to ensure that all dwelling
units will be used and held only as rental housing, and that 54 dwelling units shall be used and remain as
affordable rental housing in perpetuity.
To authorize the City to enter into a Housing Agreement, the attached bylaw (see Appendix B) is being
brought forward to Council for first, second and third reading. A Public Hearing is not required prior to
final adoption of the bylaw. The Housing Agreement bylaw will be brought forward for consideration of
final reading/adoption at the same meeting as the consideration of final adoption of the rezoning
application 2019-255-RZ (Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw 7872-2027) once all terms and conditions of
the rezoning are met by the applicant.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
That Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024 for 12297 222 Street, 22175 123 Avenue, and
22185 123 Avenue be given first, second and third reading.
2019-255-RZ Page 1 of 3
DISCUSSION:
a) Project Description:
As discussed in the Council Report dated June 18, 2024, the development site currently has access to 123
Avenue and 222 Street (see Appendix A). There are four to five-storey multi-family apartment buildings and
parkland to the east, a development application for a six-storey apartment building to the south, and single-
family dwellings on the other parcels to the south, north and west. It is likely that with time the remaining
single-family homes in the area will also redevelop with multi-family type development.
It is proposed that the subject properties be developed to accommodate an eight-storey Apartment/Group
Child Care Centre building comprised of the following:
1. a Group Child Care Centre on the second floor;
2. 106 rental dwelling units, including 54 affordable rental units and 52 market rental units, intended
to be utilized by senior citizens and, people with a disability or diminished ability, war veterans and
sponsored immigrants;
3. four studio guest units to serve as temporary accommodations for visitors of tenants; and
4. ancillary office uses and other amenities for the primary housing use.
b) Housing Agreement:
Under the Local Government Act ("LGA"), the City may, by bylaw, enter into a Housing Agreement, which
may include terms and conditions agreed upon by the City and a landowner regarding the occupancy of
the housing units identified in the agreement. This includes, but is not limited to, the form of tenure of the
housing units. If the City is entered into a Housing Agreement, it must file in the Land Title Office a notice
that the land described in the notice is subject to the Housing Agreement, in accordance with subsection
483(5) of the LGA.
The proposed development is consistent with Policy 3-32 of the Official Community Plan ("OCP") which
states that "Maple Ridge supports the provision of affordable, rental and special needs housing throughout
the District," and the Housing Agreement reflects this as well. It is proposed that the Housing Agreement
(see Appendix B) be registered as a covenant on the subject properties as agreed upon by the City and the
landowner to ensure:
1. that all 106 dwelling units in the development are used as rental housing in perpetuity;
2. that the 54 affordable rental dwelling units in the development are used as affordable rental
housing in perpetuity; and
3. that the supportive rental units and senior rental units in the development are occupied by people
with a disability and senior citizens, respectively.
CONCLUSION:
To allow rezoning application 2019-255-RZ to proceed to final adoption, the applicant has agreed to enter
into a Housing Agreement that requires the following, in accordance with the OCP:
1. all 106 dwelling units in the development be used as rental housing in perpetuity;
2019-255-RZ Page 2 of 3
2. the 54 affordable rental dwelling units in the development be used as affordable rental housing in
perpetuity; and
3. the supportive rental units and senior rental units in the development be occupied by people with
a disability and senior citizens, respectively.
For further security, the Housing Agreement is to be registered as a covenant on the subject properties as
discussed above.
The LGA requires that the City adopts a bylaw to enter into a Housing Agreement, and files a notice on the
title of the land that the land is subject to a Housing Agreement. Therefore, Council is requested to grant
first, second and third reading for the Housing Agreement Bylaw No. 8003-2024 for the properties located
at 12297 222 Street, 22175 123 Avenue, and 22185 123 Avenue. Final adoption would be considered by
Council at a later date, concurrently with final reading/adoption for Maple Ridge Zone Amending Bylaw
7872-2021.

Council Report
TO: His Worship Mayor Dan Ruimy MEETING DATE: July 9, 2024
FILE NO: 2240.20 MEETING: Council
SUBJECT: 2024-2034 Canada Community-Building Fund Agreement
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) has signed an Agreement between the federal
government, the Province of British Columbia and UBCM that provides the administrative framework
for the delivery of the Canada Community-Building Fund . This fund replaces the former federal Gas Tax
Fund.
In order to receive it first payment for the 2024/2025 funding year, the City of Maple Ridge council must
authorize the Mayor and the Corporate Officer to sign the agreement on behalf of the local government.
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council authorize the Mayor and Corporate Officer to sign the 2024-2034 Canada Community-
Building Fund Agreement on behalf of the City of Maple Ridge.
DISCUSSION:
a) Background Context:
The UBCM Gas Tax Program began in 2005 and was part of a federal initiative to provide predictable,
long-term funding to support municipal infrastructure projects in British Columbia. It's main
objectives were to provide funding for municipal infrastructure, sustainable communities and
capacity building.
The program has now evolved into the Canada Community-Building Fund and ensures that the Fund will
continue to provide dedicated and predictable funds to each local government in the province. The
funds are earmarked for investments in local infrastructure and capacity-building priorities, aligning with
our long-term development goals.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The Community Works Fund (CWF) is one of three funding streams
delivered through the Canada Community-Building Fund (CCBF) in
British Columbia, formerly known as the Gas Tax Fund. The recently
renewed CCBF Agreement provides a ten-year commitment of federal
funding for investments in local government infrastructure and capacity
building projects through March 31, 2034.
Between 2024 and 2029, local governments in British Columbia are
confirmed to receive approximately $1.6 billion of CCBF funding
through various program delivery models, $650 million of which will be
delivered through the Community Works Fund program.
Local governments can invest their annual CWF allocations in 23 unique
capital and capacity building project categories, see Table 1 on the
following page.
Eligible categories have been expanded from the previous Agreement to
include the purchase of fire trucks as a stand-alone project and the
addition of a Resilience category to replace Disaster Mitigation.
Feasibility studies and detail design projects are now eligible under all
infrastructure categories, as stand-alone projects.

ALLOCATIONS AND PAYMENTS
CWF allocations are determined using a formula that combines a
minimum funding floor and a per capita amount for each local
government in British Columbia. Allocations vary depending on the
location of a local government. The program is indexed every third year
which sees an increase in base and per capita. Between 2024 and 2029,
local governments in British Columbia will receive the following
allocations:
Years 1-3, 2024/25 -2026/27
Local Government Base Funding Per Capita Amount Type Amount
Metro Vancouver $63,411 $3.23 / person
Outside Metro $63,411 $45.50 / person Vancouver
Years 3-5, 2027 /28 -2028/29
Local Government Base Funding Per Capita Amount Type Amount
Metro Vancouver $65,948 $3.36 I person
Outside Metro $65,948 $47.36 / per person Vancouver
For reference, an updated 2019 -2024 allocation table for
municipalities and regional districts is found in Appendix B of this
document.

annually on project expenditures and outputs to UBCM and
Infrastructure Canada. If you have questions about project eligibility,
contact the CWF Program Officer at tsimpson@ubcm.ca or 250-356-
0876
STACKING
The current CWF program is considered federal funds for the purpose of
federal stacking rules. Although there are no specific rules in the CWF
program for stacking with other grants, UBCM recommends the
applicant consult with other grant officers to determine eligibility of
stacking.

identified in individual Community Works Fund Agreements.
12
DEFINITIONS
Infrastructure -means municipal or regional, publicly or privately
owned tangible capital assets, or natural assets, in British Columbia
and UBCM primarily for public use or benefit.
Tangible capital assets are non-financial assets having physical
substance that are acquired, constructed or developed and: (i) are held
for use in the production or supply of goods and services; (ii) have
useful lives extending beyond an accounting period and are intended to
be used on a continuing basis; and (iii) are not intended for sale in the
ordinary course of operations.
Fixed equipment means any piece of property which, when installed in
a facility for continuing use in connection with the facility, is considered
a permanent part of the facility and cannot be reasonably removed
without affecting the structural integrity of the facility, including its
utility or ventilation systems. To be considered as fixed equipment, the
item must be capitalized in the grantee's records as part of the facility
to which it is attached. Further, if the facility were to be sold or
otherwise disposed of, such equipment would be sold or otherwise
disposed of as part of the facility. Examples include, but are not limited
to, elevators, boilers, and furnaces; plumbing, electrical, heating-
ventilating-air conditioning (HVAC), and refrigeration systems; and
specialized items such as cage washers, laboratory casework, and some
growth chambers.
Ultimate Recipient
(i) a Local Government or its agent (including its wholly owned
corporation);
13
(ii) a non-local government entity, including Indigenous recipients,
non-governmental and not-for-profit organizations, on the condition
that the Local Government(s) has (have) indicated support for the
project through a formal resolution of its (their) council(s) or board(s)
and that the entity receiving funds delivers a service typical of local
government
(iii) Translink, BC Transit, and Islands Trust
14
APPENDIX A -GUIDELINES FOR CWF PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION
FOR ALL LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
UBCM encourages local governments to prioritize projects that relate to
local government assets which have been identified for renewal,
enhancement or construction through a local long-term infrastructure or
asset management plan.
While housing is not a standalone eligible category, communities are
encouraged to invest CCBF funding in ways that strategically advance
housing initiatives within their communities, when it makes sense to do
so.
UBCM requires recipients to spend CWF funding within 5-years of receipt
unless longer timelines are identified in a long-term capital plan / long-
term financial plan, which has been submitted to UBCM in advance.
Local governments should consider projects that have been identified as
local or regional in scope, including how they benefit local First Nation
communities.1
Projects relating to an asset not owned by a local government must be
approved through a board or council resolution which identifies the
project meets the following criteria:
1. Board or council has identified the project as a regional or municipal
priority within a long-term capital investment plan;
2. Board or council has not prioritized the 3rd party project over a local
government owned priority project;
3. The project is supported by asset management planning;
1 For regional districts, CWF is distributed based on populations of First Nations and Electoral Areas in
unincorporated areas.
15
4. The project meets the minimum outcomes reporting criteria as
identified below.
Any project that receives more than $25,000 of CWF funding must
complete annual outcomes reporting which will include the following
information:
o Population directly served by the project
o First Nation Population directly served by the project
o Output metric
o Outcome metric

within the Metro Vancouver Regional District with populations greater
than 30,000 have the following additional administrative guidance.
• Housing needs report updated by March 2025 or in accordance
with provincial requirements
• Provide UBCM with web link to Housing Needs Report
17
APPENDIX C -ADDITIONAL PROGRAM GUIDELINES FOR
COMMUNITIES OUTSIDE METRO VANCOUVER WITH AND A
POPULATION OF 30,000 OR GREATER
In addition to the guidelines found in Appendix Bl, Appendix B3 provides
additional program administration guidance for the following local

• Housing Needs Report (HNR} updated by March 2025 or in
accordance with provincial requirements
• Provide UBCM with web link to Housing Needs Report
• Where housing pressures have been identified within the HNR that
can be addressed through closing infrastructure gaps or building
capacity, prioritize these projects where it makes sense to do so,
and;
• Meet the project-based housing reporting requirements in Schedule
G, Section 2.2
18
APPENDIX D -FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Below are some frequently asked questions regarding the renewed CWF
program.
Why is my Community Works Fund allocation less than last year?
The Canada Community-Building Fund is a national transfer currently
set at $2.3 billion nationally and based primarily on a per-capita
allocation. Every five years, the allocation is updated to the most recent
Canada census numbers. Changes in your allocation is therefore tied to
the per capita amount Canada transfers to BC and the population
change of your local government relative to all other local governments.
Therefore, local governments with a negative population change or a
relatively low increase in population will be receiving less CWF.
However, there is an indexing formula built in to the program which will
see incremental increases to the fund over time.
What is required in order to receive my first CWF transfer?
For local governments to receive their first CWF transfer in 2024, they
must meet the following requirements:
• Submit their 2023 CCBF Annual Expenditure Report to UBCM
(deadline was June 1, 2024)
• Submit their Audited Financial Statement to the Province
• Be in compliance with the 2014-2024 Community Works Fund
Agreement
• Enter in to a 2024-2034 Community Works Fund Agreement with
UBCM
When will I expect to receive my first CWF transfer?
19
Provided you have met the above conditions and have executed a 2024-
34 Community Works Fund Agreement with UBCM, the first CWF
transfer is expected to occur in August 2024 -or within 30 days of
UBCM receiving its first payment from Canada.
What are the changes to the Community Works Fund Program?
Eligible Investment Categories:
• All existing eligible project categories are maintained.
• The 'Disaster Mitigation' category has been expanded and
renamed 'Resilience' and eligible expenditures expanded to also
include: New construction of public infrastructure and/or modification
or reinforcement of existing public infrastructure including natural
infrastructure that prevent, mitigate or protect against the impacts of
climate change, disasters triggered by natural hazards, and extreme
weather.
• The 'Fire Hall' category has been expanded to now include Fire
Truck purchases as stand-alone projects.
• Feasibility Studies and Detailed Design projects are now eligible.
• Housing planning is now an eligible under Capacity Building.
Changes to Reporting:
For all local governments, the timeline for annual reporting will
continue to be June 1 of each year. New requirements for reporting will
include:
• Geolocation for each project (details to follow)
• A requirement to provide a standardized metric (output) for each
project (such as meters of road, meters of pipe, number of facilities)
• A requirement to provide a standardized outcome for each project
completed in a given year (such as increase of residents served,
increase in storage capacity)
20
Reporting specific to municipalities with a population over 30,000:
• A Housing Needs Report updated by March 2025 in accordance
with provincial requirements;
• Provide UBCM with web link to the Housing Needs Report;
Additionally for non-Metro municipalities over 30,000:
• Where housing pressures have been identified within the Housing
Needs Report that can be addressed through closing infrastructure gaps
or building capacity, prioritization of CWF funding for these projects,
where it makes sense to do so, and;
• Meet the project-based housing requirements set out in the CWF
Agreement.
Spending timelines:
CWF funds received by UBCM in a given year will be required to be fully
expended on eligible projects within five years. Exceptions will be
considered on a case-by-case basis and identified through a long-term
capital and/or asset management plan.
Note that any unspent CWF funds held by the local government under
the 2014-2024 CWF program will be required to be spent within five
years of entering into the 2024-2034 CWF Agreement with UBCM.
For any additional questions, please contact our CCBF staff at
ccbf@ubcm.ca or 250-356-5134.

delegates will:
• Hear reports from the MIABC Board Chair and Committee Chairs
• Vote on resolutions
• Elect Board Directors
In 2022, the Council of the day appointed the Chief Administrative Officer as the voting delegate, the
General Counsel/Acting Corporate Officer as the first alternate and the Policy Coordinator as the second
alternate. As two of these three positions do not typically attend UBCM , it is recommended Council
appoint two council members as the delegate and first alternate with the Chief Administrative Officer
be ing the second alternate. To do so, council must pass a resolution directing these changes and the
resolution must be submitted to MIABC no later than Monday, August 2, 2024.
