Prince George City Council approved three resolutions to submit to the North Central Local Government Association at last night’s (Monday) meeting.
The NCLGA is a non-profit, non-partisan association comprised of elected officials in North Central B.C., and works to advocate local priorities to higher levels of government.
Prince George, the Lheidli T’enneh and Regional District of Fraser-Fort George will be co-hosting NCLGA’s annual meeting and convention May 20 to May 22.
The first requests additional resources be allocated to the BC Crown Counsel Association, such as increasing the number of Crown prosecutors to deal with the disclosure of evidence from body-worn cameras.
The second calls for the creation of an Indigenous-led, cross-sector housing alliance.
The third and final resolution for Council to discuss on Monday would call on the federal government to appoint a Federal Minister of Forests to actively support the Canadian forestry sector.
The full resolutions can be found here.
