Based on discussion at the 2018-JUN-06 Community Vitality Committee meeting, the following items will be considered:

  1. A recommendation that Council endorse a Nanaimo-specific resolution similar to the UBCM resolution to "accept the Kidney Foundation's challenge to Save Lives Through Organ Donation and work with the Foundation to increase the number of people registered as organ donors in the community.";
  2. a recommendation that Council consider creating and adopting a City-wide policy for ways in which the City can offer support to non-profit and special advocacy groups; and
  3. a brainstorming of other creative suggestions for The Kidney Foundation’s education and awareness campaign. 

On 2018-JUN-18, Council approved a $9,715.13 Heritage Façade Grant for an exterior repaint and the installation of lighting and window boxes at the Merchant's Bank of Canada located at 499 Wallace Street.

The 2018/19 street banners designed by local artist Robert Plante have been installed on lamp posts on major streets throughout Nanaimo.
