Title
Motion with Notice: Big City Mayor’s Caucus, Federation of Canadian Municipalities (Chair Plant)
Recommendation
Whereas the Capital Regional District (CRD) has a population of greater than 450,000 residents,
And
Whereas our region experiences similar challenges as that of other large cities in Canada and wants to raise its voice as part of the Big City Mayor’s Caucus,
And
Whereas our regional district, and a majority of our membership, participates in FCM membership and pays membership dues,
Be it resolved that:
The CRD lobby the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) Executive and Chief Executive Officer to earn a seat on the FCM Big City Mayor’s Caucus and,
Be it further resolved the seat be held by either the Mayor of the City of Victoria or District of Saanich on a two-year rotating basis.
