Notice of Special Board of Directors Meeting

Meeting format 

Members of the public are welcome to attend and observe board deliberations at the Special Meeting and, as with all meetings of the Board, the rules of procedure adhere to the current edition of Bourinot’s Rules of Order. The Special Meeting has been moved to the South Huron Recreation Centre location in Exeter in acknowledgement of public interest in the draft Consultant Recommendation Report prepared by consultants doing technical work for the 2015-2017 Update of the Shoreline Management Plan (SMP).

While this working meeting of the Board of Directors is open to the public it has been called so Directors can discuss and vote upon the motion. It is not being held as a ‘public meeting’ with mechanisms for public remarks – however, public meetings in open-house format will be held in 2017 when there is commencement of shoreline management draft local policy development.

It was previously posted that the ABCA Board of Directors would consider the motion at the regularly scheduled board meeting on Thursday, November 24, 2016. However, as many members of the public have shared their belief in the importance of receiving timely clarity on the Board’s position on the policies proposed by the consultants in the draft report, the Board of Directors wants to accommodate this public request and is providing notice through this email, as well as through other avenues.

Our Thanks 

We thank you for your continued interest in the 2015-2017 work to update the current Shoreline Management Plan (2000). We will continue to consider public input prior to and during commencement of development of draft local policies in 2017. We look forward to continuing to work with you over the coming year and years to ensure policies for management along the shoreline continue to be based on the best and most current information possible and continue to protect life and property and the public interest in an effective, responsible, and practical manner.
