[fvc-wat-disc] meeting next Wed. Nov. 25; 7:00 pm

[Peter KH]

Last meeting I promised links to articles about municipal power. Here are some links I found:
1) https://www.toronto.ca/ext/digital_comm/inquiry/inquiry_site/cd/gg/add_pdf/77/Governance/Electronic_Documents/Other_CDN_Jurisdictions/Powers_of_Canadian_Cities.pdf
2) http://spacing.ca/toronto/2019/06/21/lorinc-the-myth-of-the-city-charter/
3) http://spacing.ca/toronto/2019/12/19/in-defense-of-toronto-becoming-a-charter-city/

Article (1) is the most interesting. According to https://www.ontario.ca/document/ontario-municipal-councillors-guide-2018/7-councillors-lawmakers#:~:text=Natural%20person%20powers%20give%20municipalities,for%20more%20specific%20legislative%20authority. Ontario cities have "natural person powers" but Toronto is still not a charter city.
I haven't yet read the article but this article sounds interesting https://scholarship.law.duke.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4124&context=lcp

FairVote - unrelated public service announcement:
The region is having a Q&A session about the transit hub on Dec 3rd
https://www.engagewr.ca/king-victoria-transit-hub/news_feed/fall-2020-public-input I plan on attending.

Looking forward to the meeting on Wednesday,
- Peter KH
