12. MOTIONS
12.1 Deputy Mayor Rankin
Whereas the first six (6) meetings of the Solid Waste/Resource Review Community Engagement has resulted in a resounding message that HRM should honour its written contract with the communities in the vicinity of the Otter Lake landfill facility.
Whereas the discussion at the meetings has been focused on the Stantec Report recommendations for changes at the Otter Lake landfill facility, to the detriment of discussions of other recommendations for changes to the Solid Waste/Resource system;
Whereas the stress on the local community is obvious and avoidable;
And whereas a staff report on the outcome of the community engagement is no longer required
BE IT RESOLVED THAT
Council’s resolution of April 23rd be rescinded and the Stantec recommendations to close the FEP and WSF and reduce liners be rejected (2/3rd vote required)
12.2 Councillor Mason
That Halifax Regional Council request a staff report outlining possible participation and if merited, appropriate funding for Destination Eastern & Northumberland Shores (DEANS).
