Agenda document Full packet Watch

What is in the packet

The packet carries the draft 2 September minutes and the stormwater division's overview presentation. In the minutes, council member Harrison Kesling told the committee the town faces lost revenue from commercial property tax appeals and slowing growth. He said the proposed bus rapid transit alignment would mostly serve areas east of the railroad. Plant-Based Treaty representatives asked to present, and staff reported 14 proposals for the new Climate Action Plan. The presentation describes the town's stormwater permit duties and a 2021 master plan that identified 10 projects worth about $12 million.

What's on this agenda

Morrisville's Environment and Stormwater Committee hears an overview of the town's stormwater division from Ben Mills, its stormwater engineering manager. Staff also give an update on the Sustainable Climate Action Plan and introduce nominations for chair and vice chair.

The rest is committee business: gifts and volunteers for a student art poster contest, a recycling exhibit, a request from the Plant-Based Treaty group to present in November, a member's item on the Morrisville Land Plan, and Green Day on 14 November. The agenda holds a public comment period.
