Council has outlined six focuses for their strategic plan. This includes increasing city revenues, responsible asset management, value of natural assets and lifestyles, enhance civic pride, advocate for community, social, and environmental issues, and Manage the Impacts of Growth.
Outlined in the report as well was the local RCMP. 2019 was another busy year for the force responding to 14,029 calls for service, 9,607 of those happening in Terrace. The numbers represent a 13 per cent increase from the previous year. In 2020 the department will be growing with the addition of several frontline officers under both municipal and provincial contracts. One of the points outlined as a goal for the upcoming year is to reduce substance abuse through partnerships
with external agencies to address mental health and addictions as well as increasing community and police relations.
The report does not outline further details on the proposed Inland Transload Port.
