Township of Langley Council will hold a Special Meeting only this week as the agenda remains light. Of special note are two items before Council this week:
A report on Traffic Calming
The Master Transportation Plan - Road Network Plan and Classification
Also of interest is consideration for a resolution by Council to eliminate refugee transportation loans. Apparently the federal government gives loans to refugees to cover their medical examination and transportation to Canada. These refugees then come to Canada with debt that could total up to $10,000. Advocates would like to see the loans eliminated so that the government could simply pay the transportation costs for the refugees and lessen their burdens. Sounds like a great idea to us!
