NORTH BATTLEFORD - COVID-19 restrictions may have lifted, but city council meetings in North Battleford are staying virtual for a little while longer.
At their council meeting Monday night held over the Zoom platform, Councillor Kelli Hawtin again raised the issue of when council meetings might be resuming live. She said she hoped to hear an update at the next council meeting.
Director of Corporate Services Jennifer Niesink responded there was no quicker timeline on getting the electronics installed.
The city is planning to move meetings permanently to the Don Ross Centre where room 107 is 小蓝视频 converted to a council chamber, but electronics still need to be set up in the new meeting space. Niesink indicated those were still likely to arrive in late April and be ready for May.
It is possible they could move in earlier. Niesink indicated they might be able to set up a singular camera that could at least broadcast the meeting. But that would require all members of council to be there.
Niesink told council they would come back with a report at the next meeting.
