[GREN-Exec] LRT position

[John Jackson]

In preparation for Tuesday¹s meeting, I am reviewing our position on LRT. I
have attached our existing position. I¹ll also bring a few with me Tuesday
night.

Do we need to have our membership change anything in this position Tuesday
evening to make it valid for us to proceed? It is the 5 points on the first
page that are the position that we have to have agreement on.

The one that I am wondering about is number 5: ³NOT be built without the
written commitment of both the provincial and federal governments to cover
the pledged 2/3 of the cost, with every effort made to not exceed the
projected cost of $790 million for the 11 km of LRT and 13 km of adapted BRT
(Bus Rapid Transit - no separate bus lanes).² Do we need to have this
changed by the membership on Tuesday night?

Please let me know what you think.

John
