Council Portfolio

I missed the council meeting on Tuesday (Nov. 13) due to a commitment in Edmonton for that week. At the meeting, the committees and boards on which we'll serve were decided and here is what I'll be doing, based on the draft minutes (to be confirmed on the 26th):

• Aboriginal Interagency Committee (I have no details on the frequency of meetings, likely monthly)
  
  
• Assessment Review Board (all councillors serve on this; it meets annually and makes decisions on complaints relating to all assessments other than linear assessments. Since I don't what what a linear assessment IS, I'll need to learn more about this)
  
  
• Peace Country Health Community Health Council (the council provides advice to the Peace Country Health Board; facilitates two-way communication with the community; acts as a forum for public input on health needs; and promotes awareness of health resources, programs and services)
  
  
• East Peace Landfill Authority (alternate for Jim Hancock, Don Good and Neil Martin)
  
  
• Health & Safety/Risk Management Committee (meets monthly to discuss health and safety issues of the Town)
  
  
• Intermunicipal Mutual Aid Committee (meets as necessary to discuss proposed projects, etc.)
  
  
• Land of the Mighty Peace Tourist Association (alternate for Wanda Laurin)
  
  
• Peace River Centennial Museum Board (alternate for Neil Martin)
  
  
• Peace River Municipal Library Board (meets monthly)
  
  
• Subdivision & Development Appeal Committee (meets as necessary to hear appeals relating to subdivision and/or development application decisions)
