Printable - 2012 Alternate Approval Process Form
Pursuant to the Community Charter, the Council of the Town of Osoyoos is proposing to seek the assent of the electors in the Town of Osoyoos by means of Alternative Approval Process. The question before the electors is whether they are opposed to the borrowing of $287,250 for the Road Reconstruction of Cottonwood Drive from Highway 3 to remainder of Lot 1 Plan 46437 for a 20 year period.
The cost of the reconstruction project is $383,000 with 25% funding coming from development cost charges and the balance of $287,250 through long term borrowing. This loan authorization bylaw will cost an additional $4.75 per average single family residence in taxes.
INSTRUCTIONS
- If you are opposed to Loan Authorization Bylaw 1290, 2012 you can sign an Elector Response form.
- Elector Response forms are available at the Town office at 8707 Main Street, Osoyoos, B.C., V0H 1V0.
- A person who receives an Elector Response form may make accurate copies of the form.
- Each Elector Response form or accurate copy of an Elector Response form may be signed by one or more electors.
- To sign an Elector Response form an elector must meet the following criteria:
Resident electors must:
a) be 18 years of age or older;
b) be a Canadian citizen;
c) be a resident of British Columbia, for at least 6 months;
d) be a resident of the Town of Osoyoos for at least 30 days; and
e) not be disqualified by any Provincial enactment, or otherwise disqualified by law, from voting in an election.
