FCM release budget recommendations
PRINCE GEORGE — In anticipation of the upcoming federal budget, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) has released a set of recommendations titled Building Better Lives with Budget 2020.
First Vice-President of FCM and Prince George City Councillor Garth Frizzell argues the budget offers some key opportunities.
“Whether it’s permanent transit funding, climate action, or access to adequate broadband, municipalities are ready to bring life to the commitments we’ve heard from this government,” he says.
“It is an opportunity for the government to show it can deliver for Prince George, and FCM is offering a clear path to results that people see and feel in their daily lives.”
