On March 8, the Province of Nova Scotia introduced Bill 85 to amend Chapter 18 of the Municipal Government Act respecting Cape Breton Regional Municipality (CBRM). The Municipality of the District of Guysborough feels the new act, if imposed, will negatively impact all the province’s municipalities. “Right now, it’s a level playing fi eld,” said Guysborough Warden Vernon Pitts. “We know the rules and we do every- thing we can to stay within those rules, and we have. When the rules change halfway through the game, it’s not good for anyone, municipal units, as well as any proponents that are coming forward with projects.” If the CBRM request is granted, Pitts said Guysborough will ask for the same consideration. “If the province is going to grant that for one, it should be granted for all,” said Pitts. “I would far sooner see it not granted at all. That would be my fi rst choice. Second choice is, if you’re going to do it, let’s be fair here and do it for everyone.” Photo by Melanie Holder Strait Area Ground Search and Rescue hosted a map and compass course last weekend at their headquarters in Monas- Continued on page 2 tery.

  • DISTRICT of COLDSTREAM MEMORANDUM (Eolflstromi
    district of DISTRICT OF COLDSTREAM (EcibBtrcam MEMORANDUM TO Mayor and Council FILE NO. 0430 FROM Michael Stamhuis, P.Eng. DATE January 16, 2009 Director of Engineering Services SUBJECT High Priority Infrastructure Projects 1. Purpose To advise Council of list of infrastructure projects forwarded to local Member of Parliament. 2. Origin Council query. 3. Background In early December we were asked to forward a list of high priority projects to the local office of Colin Mayes, M.P. This list is attached. Following this, Council received two further pieces of correspondence being the attached Federation of Canadian Municipalities Member's Advisory re infrastructure projects and an expression of interest from Colin Mayes, M.P. to meet with Council. 4. Discussion The attached list of infrastructure projects could serve as a basis for any meeting with Mr. Mayes. It should be noted that the list was developed on very short notice at the time of request and may not be reflective of Council's priorities at this time. In addition, there appears to be some indication that the Federal Government will be looking for "shelf-ready" projects. The attached list has projects that are in various stages of shelf-readiness. We anticipate that the Federal Government Budget announcement will contain a reference to an infrastructure program. We will have to await the criteria that would ultimately be included in the program documents. Once this documentation is received, we recommend a Council review to determine which project(s) would best fit both the funding criteria and our own priorities. If a meeting is set up with our Member of Parliament once the program particulars are known, any project funding application could be a key discussion topic.
