Episode description
At a special council meeting on Monday, February 12 Nanaimo City Council voted to cancel a second Alternative Approval Process, or AAP, to take out a $48.5 million loan to rebuild the public works yard.
The city made a fatal error when elector response forms were not available until a day after the official notice for the AAP was posted. According to a staff report, this error meant that the AAP did not meet the requirements of provincial legislation.
Council also voted to abandon the borrowing bylaw for the loan and direct staff to present options to fund Phase One of the Nanaimo Operations Centre.
