The motion passed with 14 in favour and 3 opposed. Therefore, this is the GREN position that we will be promoting to the Regional Council. John noted the following:<br><br><i>The fact that this is the GREN position does not mean that GREN members shouldn’t present a differing view to Regional Council if they so wish. Just make sure that it is presented on behalf of yourself or of another group that you are part of – but not on behalf of GREN. Likewise, even if you support the motion that GREN has adopted, we encourage you to speak to or e-mail the councillors and participate in the various public input sessions promoting the position. The more people and groups that speak out the better.<br></i><br><br><b><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='color:black'>Minutes by Susan Bryant<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Free Energy and Water Saving Workshops<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Dates:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt'> Tuesdays and Saturdays from March to May 2011<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Location:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt'> REEP House for Sustainable Living<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Topics:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt'> electricity savings, furnaces, water conservation, and more!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://www.reepgreen.ca/events_workshops.php"><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:windowtext'>Click here for workshop details</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
