Agriculture Advisory Committee (ACC)



                There is a request from some board members to create an ACC.  Staff researched this and suggested that the CSRD not go in this direction because; the staff time it a takes to deal with AACs in additional meetings and paper work. There is however a way for them to be in the existing ACP and still have AAC involved. There is an opportunity for them to meet in a regional Agricultural plan with Salmon Arm. The farming community, they want a voice on CSRD issues. The point was brought up if this happens will then the constructions industry, hotel industry and a raft of other organizations also have a voice directly to the CSRD. It was decide that more information would be needed and staff looks into it.
