Administration Update
North Sector Area Plan
In accordance with the Corporation's 2013 Workplan, staff will be commencing work on a new area plan for the north sector lands which were included in the 2007 northern boundary expansion. The purpose of the plan is to identify future land use and development, servicing phasing and timing and the land's relationship to the adjacent Wildstone and St. Mary Neighbourhood Plan (includes Shadow Mountain)areas. The majority of the lands currently do not have a land use designation assigned to them in the City's Official Community Plan (OCP). Staff has prepared a workplan which outlines the steps in the planning process over the next nine months. It is anticipated that consultation for the process will include interdepartmental and intergovernmental meetings, letters and newsletters along with a questionnaire to residents and property owners, a public meeting and an open house to present the draft plan when complete. Specific dates for the various events have not been determined at this point. Staff will advise of the dates when they are scheduled.

Economic Development
Cranbrook's BizPal presence was "soft launched" in June, in other words Cranbrook's information is made available on a limited basis for testing/validation purposes. Administration is currently testing the BizPal system to ensure that it works properly with the Cranbrook information. The testing phase and any associated clean-up for the Cranbrook information is expected to be completed by the end of July. At that point a BizPal web-page will be set up on the City's web-site and Cranbrook's presence on BizPal will be officially launched and available for public use.

I find it interesting that so many people on Mr. Habermans petition are not residents of the city. I also feel that Mr. Warner should not have signed the petition - he already had his vote.
