Review of Notes from Previous Meeting – Meeting of 4 April 2006.  Moved by Anne, Seconded by Alvena to accept the notes from the meeting of 4 April 2006.  Carried.

    

3.

Draft CDC Concept Submission and Brainstorming Potential CDC Projects – Craig presented the draft of the CDC concept that will be submitted to Brad Anguish for review by the legal department of HRM.   This version includes the points that were raised by Kristian Curran and Sharon Martin.  It also contains specific questions to be directed to the legal department.  It was recommended that the question regarding the funding process be more specific.  Craig said he would amend it and then immediately submit the proposal to Brad Anguish with a request that the legal opinion be forwarded to the CLC in time for the Tiger Team brainstorming session in June 2006.
 

4.

Tiger Team Proposal – Craig discussed the revised proposal for the Tiger Team concept.  He noted that Sharon Martin had agreed to facilitate the Tiger Team brainstorming session.  The revision contained the additional names suggested by the CLC members at the meeting on 4 April 2006 and comments submitted by Sharon Martin and Kristian Curran.  Craig said that he would ask Sharon for specific recommendations regarding a youth participant and representation from Capital District Planning.  Craig said that he would ask Brad Anguish to propose a member from the legal department who would participate in the brainstorming session.   The next step is to set a specific date (contingent upon the availability of key participants) and send the proposed participants a letter of invite. Anne and Delaine will work on the letter and forward it to Craig for signature.  
   

5.

Pre-Tiger Team Session Review of Issues – It was agreed that the CLC should discuss those areas and aspects of the CDC that are of importance to the CLC and that may not be open for discussion during the brainstorming session.  This process will ensure that all participants are cohesive and that the priorities of the CLC, that have been identified in earlier public sessions and meetings, are those discussed at the brainstorming session.  It was agreed that this review would be done at the next meeting of the CLC on 6 June 2006.

       

6.

Wastewater Treatment Plant – Change of Colour of Exterior Bricks – Craig said that he was contacted by Dan O’Halloran (Owner’s Engineer) to request that he attend a meeting to discuss a proposed change of colour of one of the exterior finishing materials.  Craig said that he attended the meeting and it was proposed that a darker colour be used on the field area (large spaces) to provide a greater contrast with the trim.  Craig said that the architect, George Rogers, was in attendance and that the proposal made sense to all in attendance.  As such, the proposal was approved.

    

7.

Next Meeting Date –6:00 pm, on Tuesday, 6 June 2006 at the George Dixon Centre.
