The Alberta Urban Municipalities Association passed three Requests for Decision (RFD) motions at its Spring Municipal Leaders Caucus on Thursday.
The motions will be forwarded on to AUMA committees for further fleshing out, and will be appended to other AUMA lobbying initiatives toward the provincial government.
The first RFD passed was a motion which asks the provincial government to allocate more funding and resources to help clear existing provincial court backlogs. The motion, which received 96 per cent support from other community leaders from across the province, reads “That the AUMA advocate for the Minister of Justice and Solicitor General to ensure the justice system is properly resourced so that all Albertans have timely and equitable access.”
