MNL had asked for slightly more than $24K but Councillor Charles Pender says the city can only pay half.
Municipalities NL is holding their annual general meeting and trade show in November in Corner Brook. At this week’s public meeting, city council approved half of an in-kind contribution request for the rental of the Civic Centre. MNL had asked for slightly more than $24K but Councillor Charles Pender says the city can only pay half. He says “While recognizing the significance of this milestone event and value in our partnership with MNL, we must balance our support with fiscal responsibility. It is staff's recommendation to offer an in-kind contribution of half of the projected rental cost up to a maximum of $12,167.50. For context, the City provided a $5,000 contribution during the last MNL Conference held in Comer Brook, and we believe this increased support would reflect our ongoing commitment to MNL and its members.”
The MNL AGM will take place November 20-22.
