Council will hear two presentations on the theme of LNG, one on the impact of development on the area of Lelu Island, the other an update of sorts on plans for a proposed LNG development along Tuck Inlet.
As well as part of the presentations to Council portion of the meeting, Council members will hear an update from the City Planner on Housing baseline indicators.
Along with those presentations Council will consider a number of reports followed by some work to be done on Bylaw items on the night.
The evening wraps up with any additional items of concern from Council members and the Mayor's Report.
Before they take to the Monday night session Council will once again take to behind closed doors, with a Closed Session of Council to take place in the early evening.
