MUNICIPAL PLANNING COMMISSION

MD of Bighorn Council is wishing to appoint two alternate members to the Municipal Planning Commission (MPC). An alternate member would only be required to attend a meeting when a regular member is unavailable. This might occur perhaps two or three times per year but could be more, or less, depending on the circumstances. The MPC meetings are held at the Municipal Office in Exshaw. If an alternate member attends a meeting, honorarium for that meeting is paid and, additionally, a mileage rate applies. If you might be interested in applying to sit as an alternate member on the Municipal Planning Commission please contact Janice Thompson for more information (ph: 403-673-3611 or 233-7678 Calgary Direct, email address: janice.thompson@mdbighorn.ca).
