Hi GREN Executive,

Thanks for the good Zoom meeting on Thursday afternoon.  It sounds like a plan is coming together for the year ahead and the issues that we need to address.

Attached below please find a copy of the Region of Waterloo report opposing Greenbelt expansion from back in the Spring.

As discussed - I will reach out to Regional Chair Karen Redman to see what I can learn
- I will reach out to Ella in Brant and Mike in Guelph to better understand their future needs
- I will drop the cheque from the Greenbelt Foundation to Greg so he can deposit it in our account
- I will draft an update to the GREN membership and circulate it for your feedback in the next day or two
- I will continue to work with Scott Wicken on our GREN website update (he hopes to get the next version working within a week)

Let me know any questions or ideas.

Cheers,
Kevin.
