After that, the public meeting begins, with an agenda that looks different than past meetings of council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tuesday\u2019s meeting agenda includes a section entitled, \u201cMayor and Councillor Statements and Inquiries\u201d. It\u2019s the first time the section has been included in a meeting since the amalgamation of Tantramar 18 months ago, despite the fact that it is included in the Tantramar procedural bylaw, one of the first four founding bylaws of the newly amalgamated municipality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On May 14, Councillor Debbie Wiggins-Colwell asked to make an observation before the regular meeting of council adjourned, but was told she could not by CAO Jennifer Borne, Clerk Donna Beal, and Mayor Andrew Black, who told her she could not speak because her item was not on the meeting\u2019s approved agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1081\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-03-at-11.46.28-AM-1280x1081.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29574\" style=\"width:710px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-03-at-11.46.28-AM-1280x1081.png 1280w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-03-at-11.46.28-AM-768x649.png 768w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-03-at-11.46.28-AM-1536x1297.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-03-at-11.46.28-AM-1320x1115.png 1320w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-03-at-11.46.28-AM.png 2008w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tantramar Ward 1 councillor Debbie Wiggins-Colwell at Committee of the Whole on February 27, 2023.  Image: Youtube screencap<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Local reporter Bruce Wark later pointed out in a story on warktimes.com, that a section for council statements is actually included in the town\u2019s own bylaw, despite it never being included on a meeting agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that the section for Mayor and Councillor Statements and Inquiries is listed, it\u2019s still not clear how the Mayor and senior staff will treat the section during the meeting, whether councillors would be required to request to speak in advance, or if they will simply be given an opportunity for statements and enquiries, as is the practice in the city of Moncton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2018Consent agenda\u2019 could now be used properly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s another change in Tuesday\u2019s agenda that also brings it closer in line with the town\u2019s own procedural bylaw: the use of a consent agenda section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tantramar\u2019s bylaw allows council to use a consent agenda as a quicker way to deal with uncontroversial housekeeping items. Items on the consent agenda are grouped together and can be voted on as one omnibus motion, with one vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But for the past year and a half, almost all items that had been previously discussed at council\u2019s committee of the whole meetings have been listed under the \u2018Consent Agenda\u2019 section in council agendas, even though they have never been dealt with as a group, and are always voted on individually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the July 9th agenda, just five previously discussed items are listed under \u2018Consent Agenda\u2019, with another seven items under another section. That indicates the possibility that council will actually use the consent agenda as it is described in their bylaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before voting on the group of consent agenda items, councillors can ask to have any or all removed and put on the agenda to be discussed individually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The consent agenda items for tonight include an helmet policy for the civic centre rink, a rental policy for civic centre signs, road closures for Moonlight Madness, and permission for the Sackville Farmers Market to apply for a liquor license for a Fall Fair event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time off for strategic planning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The consent agenda also includes a proposal for council to skip two of its regularly scheduled meetings this summer. The idea presented by CAO Jennifer Borne in June is to forego the July committee of the whole meeting scheduled for July 22, and the regular council meeting slated for August 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1052\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Jennifer-Borne-screenshot-Jan-24-2023-mtg-1280x1052.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28764\" style=\"width:699px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Jennifer-Borne-screenshot-Jan-24-2023-mtg-1280x1052.png 1280w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Jennifer-Borne-screenshot-Jan-24-2023-mtg-768x631.png 768w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Jennifer-Borne-screenshot-Jan-24-2023-mtg-1536x1263.png 1536w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tantramar CAO Jennifer Borne addressing council at their January 24, 2023 committee of the whole meeting.  Image: Youtube\/Town of Tantramar<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Borne told councillors at their June 24 committee of the whole meeting that this would give staff and council a break in their meeting schedule until August 26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf there&#8217;s any business that needs to be conducted during that period, we would of course hold a special council meeting to move that forward,\u201d said Borne, noting that the primary focus for staff this summer would be the development of the five year strategic plan for the municipality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDecreasing the workload associated with the council package preparation and attendance at meetings will free up resources for strategic planning,\u201d said Borne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tantramar Staff have previously said the strategic planning project underway this summer would include public consultation, though how and when that will play out is still unknown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Skipping summer meetings is something some other small municipalities do. Borne\u2019s report to council listed a few of those, and also pointed out the Local Government Act only requires council to have four regular meetings per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Councillor Allison Butcher said ultimately she was planning to support the proposal. \u201cWhen I first read this, my first thought was, oh, I&#8217;m not comfortable with this, because the optics are that we&#8217;re taking the summer off,\u201d said Butcher. But she says after some thought she concluded \u201cit&#8217;s important for me to trust that staff says they&#8217;ve got a lot to do in the summer with the strategic plan, and therefore we should do it this way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Loitering bylaw back on the agenda<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to its consent agenda, council will consider a number of other items at their meeting tonight, including a new Loitering Bylaw for Tantramar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The clerk\u2019s office is bringing back the by-law after it was rejected by council at their June 11 meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This time, The word \u201cbegging\u201d has been removed from the bylaw, and it has been renamed \u201cA By-Law Relating to Loitering and Soliciting in Tantramar\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new bylaw bans repeated soliciting after a negative response, and also bans soliciting in a way that might obstruct or impede traffic. It also proposes that street musicians be exempt from both those provisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The previously rejected bylaw outright banned asking for money in public places, and also left in outdated references to door-to-door book sellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before council officially considers the new bylaw tonight, they are slated to hear a presentation about it from a member of the public. Nicole Bulmer has signed up to speak to the proposed bylaw. That will happen in the early part of the meeting, while consideration of the bylaw itself will take place near the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Beale and Inch apply for rezoning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are also some planning items on the July 9 agenda. Council will be asked to cancel the development agreement that applies to the Pizza Delight and Payzant&#8217;s Home Hardware properties on Mallard Drive, so that both will simply fall under the current highway commercial zone for Sackville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And Beale and Inch construction has applied to have their York Street property rezoned from Urban Residential to Sackville\u2019s Industrial\/Business park zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"996\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2024-07-09-at-9.15.22-AM-1280x996.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2024-07-09-at-9.15.22-AM-1280x996.png 1280w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2024-07-09-at-9.15.22-AM-600x467.png 600w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2024-07-09-at-9.15.22-AM-768x598.png 768w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2024-07-09-at-9.15.22-AM-1536x1196.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2024-07-09-at-9.15.22-AM-2048x1594.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2024-07-09-at-9.15.22-AM-1320x1028.png 1320w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Beale and Inch property at 146 York Street has been operating as a &#8216;non conforming use&#8217; for decades.
