The towns of Olds and Didsbury hope to see the province provide operational transit funding for small and medium sized municipalities.
Mayor Judy Dahl says the Town of Olds is submitting a resolution on the matter – seconded by the Town of Didsbury – for consideration at the Alberta Municipalities 2022 Annual Convention in the fall.
Mayor Dahl adds, the Community Lifestyles Committee has already done a transit workshop for this rural area and received plenty of feedback.
The resolution builds upon the City of Edmonton’s approved 2020 AUMA resolution on Permanent Transit Funding, and the Alberta Municipalities advocacy for stable and predictable funding for all municipalities.
Resolutions are submitted on a variety of areas of concern each year to be vetted and voted upon by the Alberta Municipalities membership and carried forward to the Provincial Government through the organization’s advocacy efforts.
