Board decision on outstanding 2024 resolutions

After engaging members on the six outstanding resolutions from our 2024 Convention, ABmunis’ Board of Directors voted on whether the resolutions should form part of ABmunis’ advocacy in 2025 and beyond.

Here are the results:

Adopted

• C3 – Fires on Frozen Lakes
• C4 – Increase Capital Funding for Accessible Playgrounds for All New, Replacement or Renovated Alberta Public Schools with K-6 Programming
• C5 – Doubling Speed Fines in Playground Zones and School Zones
• C8 – Review of Provincial Animal Protection Act.

Defeated

• C6 – Coverage of Mandatory Drivers’ Medical Exam Fees for Albertans Aged 75 and Older
• C7 – Alberta Learner’s Licence Program Review.

We thank members who provided written input or attended the Nov. 28 webinar pertaining to the outstanding resolutions.

Our Board of Directors is eager to avoid having outstanding resolutions again in the future. It will review recommendations from our Municipal Governance Committee on this matter this month.

Alberta Municipalities has sent the adopted resolutions to the relevant provincial ministries for response. We will follow our normal advocacy approach based on the level of priority for each resolution.
