FAC ~ Public Consultation Update
Sunday, October 21, 2012 at 11:13AM Good morning folks…
The Ferry Advisory Committee Chairs (FACC) met Wednesday October 17th with Ministry of Transportation & Infrastructure (MoTI) and Kirk and Co. Consulting.
We were asked to comment on their plans for the upcoming community consultation program. Most of our comments focused around meeting details, like time of day, venue, which towns etc.
At this time, it appears that the consultation program will address what the community sees as priorities in considering service adjustments, and NO specific service adjustments will be discussed at these meetings. This was a big surprise to us. However, this could change, but the feeling we all got was that ‘they’ will stick to this and will not talk about changes to service. In any event, it is important that community members attend these meeting to see, hear and possibly comment on what is being presented as it could form the basis for future service adjustments.
FYI, MoTI has booked Forbes Hall for Wednesday November 14th, 2012 from 4 to 9 PM…
I will let you know further details as they arise…
Best Regards…
Keith
