On Wednesday, there will be an Executive Committee meeting from 9:30 am to 5:00 pm to consider the Police Service Funding Formula Policy, as well as a safe streets initiative.

While the rest of us are getting ready for May long weekend camping, on Friday, the Utility Committee will meet from 9:30 am to 5:00 pm to discuss a report from Epcor on Edmonton’s changing water use. Overall, the use per account has declined markedly. Annual water consumption is now equivalent to what it was in the 1970s, while Edmonton contains roughly half a million more people now.
