The
aim of the "Our Communities - Our Future!" initiative, is to
empower New Brunswickers with the ability to make local decisions,
so that they can plan the growth of their communities and meet
their local service needs.
In order to facilitate this new approach to local decision-making,
the Province is introducing opportunities for both unincorporated
communities (Local Service Districts) as well as existing Villages
to consider a new form of local government called the “Rural
Community”.
The first step in creating these opportunities involves changes
to various Provincial Acts and Regulations, providing the legal
authority to move forward. This will make it possible for communities
to express interest in, and consider a new form of local government
as they are ready. |
