Public Invited to June 24th Open House
An open house to elicit public feedback on the Integrated Community Sustainability Scoping Planning Assessment report prepared by Urban Systems will be held on June 24, 2008 at the Senior’s Drop-In Centre across from City Hall beginning at 7:00 pm.
The intent of the community assessment is to identify areas of sustainability successes in Fernie, to determine areas where the City should enhance their policies and to identify possible integration opportunities. The main recommendation of the assessment is that the City should initiate an update to Fernie’s Official Community Plan from a sustainability perspective. The other primary recommendation is that the City should initiate a Community Energy Plan in order to address the commitment made by the City to be carbon neutral by 2012 (Climate Action Charter). Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend.
