************************

Please try to attend if possible, as this report gives a status update and also, *Regional Comments*. The report is available from the Planning Department (contact above).

Are the Mayor and Regional Councillors keeping our Local Councillors and interested residents updated on these meetings? Charlie Trim is Chair of the Works Committee, and Mary Novak is a member of Planning Committee, so hopefully both are informing the rest of Council of an important Joint Meeting of these two committees both prior to and after the meeting. Prior to so that Local Councillors can also attend if they so wish, as this is an issue which affects Clarington residents. This holds true for many issues that come before these committees, as well as the Finance and Administration Committee, which our Mayor sits on. We hope there is a standard protocol in place for dissemination of information from our representatives at the Region to our Local Council.
