Merritt resolution

The city of Merritt has a resolution on the agenda for the up coming Union of British Columbia Municipalities. The potential law is item an NR 88, “To expidite forestry cutting permits”. This is a new issue before the body, NR designates that no action is required by the UBCM and will be an agree or disagree statement. Cutting rights are given by law through an AAC Annual Allowable Cut. The actual harvest requires permits for road access etc to be of any use.

The AGM is being held in Vancouver in September where an executive will be elected. The statement may have effect on ballots for or against candidates. look for item 149 on the agenda.
