Government conference slated for Sept. 16-20
Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) delegates will gather in Vancouver for its 110th annual convention Sept. 16-20. Representatives from the Cariboo Regional District (CRD) and District of 100 Mile House will be among about 2,000 delegates from 196 member communities debating about 150 policy resolutions. These resolutions cover community safety, environment, public health, transportation, land use and other hot button issues. Throughout the week, delegates can also take in 50 workshops, clinics and other sessions on topics, including election reform and strengthening the finance system for local government. The CRD is putting forward some new resolutions to the floor this year, as well as again bringing back others that didn’t make it into the debate previously. New submissions include asking UBCM to lobby the provincial government for support of the Rural BC Project to create a rural development strategy and revise rural economic development programming. The CRD will also ask UBCM to consider moving the annual Heritage Week from the third week of February to a date more likely to have fair weather conditions for showcasing heritage sites and associated tourism opportunities. Another calls for changes to B.C.’s Insurance Act to make home or contents insurance policies (initial or renewal) contingent on a written declaration that there is a working smoke alarm in the house. To assist the ranching community in controlling noxious weeds, the CRD will ask UBCM to also lobby the province for assistance with the cost of a pesticide applicator’s certificate, and to tailor the course material and timing to the ranchers needs. Finally, the CRD will ask UBCM to request that provincial legislation be implemented to levy an additional tax of up to half of one per cent on all commercially-produced animal food sales in B.C., to help cover the operational costs of non-profit animal protection organizations. The full book of resolutions is available for download online at www.ubcm.ca under Convention 2013.
