Council backs off on business licence bylaw
paNOW Staff
Members of Prince Albert’s city council pulled back on the proposed business licence bylaw, voicing concerns over its clarity and calling for greater public input on its content.
The bylaw, among other things, would adjust transient trader fees, lower fees for businesses that start up after July 1, increase penalties for those that violate the bylaw and clarifying regulations for business inspections.
Coun. Don Cody expressed his concern about plans to give the bylaw three readings at Monday evening’s council meeting.
