Key Points
- The Nanaimo Operations Centre Phase One Borrowing Bylaw 2023 No. 7362 is the first in this project consisting of four phases over a number of years to replace and consolidate public works and parks operations onto one site.
- Future phases of the NOC project, that require additional borrowing, will also need to attain consent of electors through an AAP or Referendum.
- The Alternative Approval Process for Phase One will remain open until 4:30 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 3, 2023.
- If 10 per cent or more of eligible voters submit an Alternative Approval Process form in opposition, the borrowing bylaw will be brought back to Council to determine if Council would like to proceed with the matter and next steps.
