Economic Development Advisory Committee
Council passed C-1121-20 - Economic Development Advisory Committee Bylaw establishing a revamped Economic Development Advisory Committee (EDAC) to replace the former committee established in 2010. Bylaw C-1121-20 provides clarification on the role, governance, and operation of the Committee.
