At today’s general committee meeting, Huntsville councillors emerged from closed-session discussions with staff and voted unanimously in favour of setting aside $72,000 from the Town’s human capital reserve fund to hire a security guard for the remainder of the year “as needed” for the Canada Summit Centre.
The guard will assist staff with the enforcement of the Municipal Buildings Property Rights of Access and Use Policy until December 31, 2023.
Staff is expected to report back to council this summer about future enforcement requirements at the Canada Summit Centre.
