Lethbridge hosts Alberta Mid-sized Mayors’ and CAOs’ Caucus
LETHBRIDGE, AB – Over 20 municipalities are being represented in Lethbridge today, Sept. 12.
The City is hosting the Alberta Mid-sized Mayors’ and CAOs’ Caucus at the Galt Museum.
Lethbridge Mayor Chris Spearman told media that the event is a great opportunity to share ideas and begin to build a strong relationship with the provincial government.
“The Blue Ribbon Panel came out with its recommendations last week. The government’s been clear that they want to focus on red tape reduction, they want to focus on attracting investment and building the Alberta economy. They recognize that we have issues in terms of the province’s finances, so it’s about working with the provincial government. We have to focus as municipalities on the same priorities and work with the government to make sure that we can be successful together,” he said.
