A special meeting of Council will be held in the Civic and Technology Centre, 100 Jensen Avenue East, Parksville, BC, on Monday, December 14, 2009 at 4:55 p.m. to consider the following items of business:

1. BYLAWS

a) "Business Licence Amendment Bylaw, 2009, No. 1079.4"
At the December 7, 2009 meeting of Council Resolution 09-304 was adopted directing staff to bring forward an amendment to "Business Licence Bylaw, 1991, No. 1079" to remove the $20.00 increase implemented in all except home occupation business licence fees in 1998. As business licence renewal notices are mailed out before the end of December each year, the amendment bylaw should be adopted prior to sending out the notices for 2010 business licences. The next regularly scheduled meeting of Council is December 21, 2009, at which time the required amendment bylaw can be adopted.

(i) Recommendation: THAT "Business Licence Amendment Bylaw, 2009, No. 1079.4" be read a first time.

(ii) Recommendation: THAT "Business Licence Amendment Bylaw, 2009, No. 1079.4" be read a second and third time.
