On July 26, 2017 Councillor Heron provided notice in accordance with Section 23 of Procedure Bylaw 22/2016 that she intended to bring forward the proposed motion below.
In order for Council to debate the motion, the motion must be formally moved.
PROPOSED MOTION(S):
recommendation
Where as on May 15th, 2017 St. Albert City Council unanimously passed motion AR-17-291 that read as follows:
Moved by Councillor Heron
That negotiations on land be postponed for the Branch Library until directed by Council.
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY
For: Crouse, Brodhead, Heron, Hughes, MacKay, Osborne, and Russell
I move:
That following the 2017 municipal election if Council decides to direct the City Manager to resume land negotiations, that the funding for the purchase of land and the detailed design not be funded using debt but rather funded from the Capital Reserve.
If the above motion passes I further move:
That the ballot question numbers of tax increases for the library be updated to reflect reduced amount of tax dollars required to service this new lower debt load.
