Dominique Symbalisty, Resident, thanked Council for their support for Green Phoenix's recycling centre proposals.
Dominique Symbalisty also commented that the Morfee Lake Narrows trail should be included in signage as either an on-leash or off-leash area, as people have been using the point as an off-leash area. She agreed that more signage at Second Beach would be helpful.
Shannon Bezo commented that she was happy to hear that Council supported the recycling centre.
Shannon Bezo also commented that she was surprised that animal boarding was not discussed.
Shannon Bezo commented that it would be great if the verbal council reports would be transcribed and added to the minutes.
Shannon Bezo asked if the three agencies have been advised that they will be referral services for the Rec Policy 8.1 updates. Director of Recreation Services Terry Gilmer replied that he will let them know now that Council has approved the changes. Shannon expressed a hope that WorkBC would be considered as another referral agency for the Recreation Access program, and noted that there are other documents available to show a "Change of Circumstance" that WorkBC uses.
Shannon Bezo also commented that she did not realize that not all bylaws and policies were being shared on the website, and recommended that when a new bylaw or policy is introduced that there be public notice.
Shannon commented that she is looking forward to the notice of motion 13.1 being discussed at the next meeting.
Janice Nelson of the Macktown Buzette commented that all trails in Mackenzie have been designated as off-leash for dogs in Bylaw No. 1473, which she said was a change made without consulting the community and was presented as a housekeeping issue.
Janice Nelson also asked for clarity on what was decided for the Temporary Use Permit item. Director of Corporate Services Emily Kaehn explained that the proposed location for the Recycling Depot is not zoned for one, and that the item for the Temporary Use Permit begins a process for making an exception for that zoning for three year term.
Janice also recommended that the current webpage lists the most frequently requested bylaws. Janice suggested better advertising would help people.
Janice also asked what was decided for the Request of Support - Green Phoenix Recycling and District Bylaws items. Emily Kaehn said that a Letter of Support will be written for Green Phoenix Recycling, and the District Bylaws letter was received by Council.
Carmen Schalles asked how people will present their concerns if the current rec pass policy isn't working for them. Councillor Wright replied that they could write a letter to Council.
