Title
Community Works Funds Criteria - Director Holman
Recommendation
[The following was read into the record at the CRD Board meeting of April 8, 2020:]
That the CRD Board Chair immediately write the Boards of UBCM and FCM requesting their advocacy to the federal government, that in light of the economic and financial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the guidelines governing expenditures of Community Works Funds be relaxed for a temporary period of up to a year, allowing a broader range of capital and operating expenditures than currently allowed, subject to the due diligence of local government, and as long as such expenditures are in the broad public interest.
