The CCRC has been engaged to provide some preliminary training on ICSP development by NLAMA during some of their Regional meetings. The first session was delivered in Clarenville back in June when we were still unsure how ICSPs would work for Newfoundland and Labrador. This coming Friday, September 19th in Cow Head we'll take another run at ICSPs. This session will be similar to the Clarenville session but it will contain up-to-date information on how ICSPs will for for NL.
Also included in the session will be some take home materials to help administrators prepare for the ICSP process and an update on the Self-Assessment project and it's links to the ICSPs.
If you are an administrator and are able to get to Cow Head on the 19th then give NLAMA a call and register for what should be a very informative session.

Convention is coming! Convention is coming!
With summer pretty much over and Halloween just around the corner all the signs point to the annual MNL Convention coming to the Pepsi Centre in Corner Brook on October 8th to the 11th.
This year's agenda is full to to brim with great educational sessions on most all facets of municipal life. Of course the one session you can't afford to miss is scheduled for Friday morning at 8:30. Yes it's the CCRC session and jokes aside you should be in attendance.
This year there will be three presenters for the CCRC session. To start the sustainability wheels turning we'll have Sarah Breen speaking on small scale local level hydro possibilities in the province. Next will be Steve Quintin, the Project Coordinator of the Self-Assessment project and he will provide an update on the project including trends that have been identified in the results to date. I will be the final speaker and my time will dedicated to talking about ICSPs and what's will happen over the next year and a half for all municipalities receiving gas tax funding. I (Ryan Lane) will also briefly cover general CCRC activities but for this coming year the issue of priority will be ICSP development. I'm hoping to provide a rough timeline as well as identify some support mechanisms that will be in place to help those who need it.
Hope to see you there!
