A question and answer period will follow the City’s presentation. "With Council's ongoing commitment to communicate with the citizens of Dawson Creek on all matters that are important to the future of this community, I encourage everyone to take the time to come to this important meeting." said Mayor Bernier. All of Council urges the community to attend, to listen, to ask questions and to offer their ideas on the direction the City should be taking with this project.
