WHAT TOPICS WILL THE ASSEMBLY DISCUSS?

The group will discuss and provide advice to the City on a variety of topics and current City projects that directly affect the day-to-day lives of New Westminster residents. Up to half of the topics discussed throughout their term will be generated by the Assembly members, and the remainder of the topics members will choose from a list generated by the City.

• Community Belonging and Connecting (Council’s Strategic Priority)
• Road reallocation projects related to City’s Active Transportation Network Plan
• Climate change and intersectionality
