THIS WEEK IN EDMONTON

  • This week is a busy one at City Hall. Today, at 9:30 am, there will be a City Council meeting. On the agenda is the 2023-2026 Spring Operating Budget Adjustment - the good news is that it looks like the City spent slightly less (nearly $6 million) than anticipated. Council will also consider reforms to the City Police Commission Reporting and Accountability Framework as well as a number of bylaws to authorize sidewalk replacements in certain areas, a police helicopter replacement, and improvements to Century Park LRT station, amongst other things.
  • On Tuesday, there are three meetings. At 8:30 am, the Agenda Review Committee will meet. Then, at 9:30 am, there will be a non-regular meeting of the Community and Public Services Committee. The Committee will discuss recruitment to its various boards, such as the Combative Sports Commission, the Edmonton Public Library Board, the Edmonton Historical Board, and the Community Services Advisory Board. The Executive Committee will also have a non-regular meeting at 9:30 am with the same intent - recruitment to various boards.
  • On Wednesday, there will be a non-regular meeting of the Urban Planning Committee at 9:30 am to discuss - you guessed it!- recruitment to various boards. Specifically, the Committee will discuss the Subdivision and Appeal Development Board, the Edmonton Transit Service Advisory Board, and the Edmonton Design Committee. At 5:30 pm, there will be a non-regular meeting of City Council to discuss work plans for some of the aforementioned boards. Finally, on Friday, at 3:00 pm, there will be a Special Audit Committee meeting to discuss the City of Edmonton 2022 Consolidated Financial Statements and the 2022 KPMG Audit Findings Report.
