I would also like to acknowledge that Nova Scotia has another unique people, the people of African descent, whose legacy and contributions date back over 400 years, predating confed eration of this land. We are all treaty people. So the agenda indicates we have one Albion Street development agreement to present. And Torben, I believe you're going to present us with the details of the presentation. So if you want to proceed. Yes, thank you, Your Lord Chair. Yes, so we have the development agreement for one Albion Street. Just a small disclaimer here, these applications are not the town's proposal. The property owner has the right to apply for a development agreement and at this time no approval or decision has been made. Anybody who doesn't know what a development agreement is, it is a legally binding contract between the property owner and the town that stipulates how the development must take place on the property. It sets out standards, design requirements, terms and conditions. Every development agreement follows this process. So we held a public participation opportunity on March 30th and the application was then reviewed by the Planning Advisory Committee on April 7th. Following the PAC meeting, the application was fo …

Wow, we can get started. I called the meeting to order of
our audit committee and do the
territorial acknowledgement. I would like to acknowledge
that our gathering today is
taking place in Mi'kma'ki, the traditional, unceded and
ancestral territory of the Mi'kma'k
people. I would also like to acknowledge that Nova Scotia
has another unique people, the
people of African descent, whose legacy and contributions
date back over 400 years, predating
confederation of this land. We're all treaty people. And
note that Councillor Davidson had
indicated he couldn't make it today and Citizen Pointy Ray
Burke couldn't make it today.
With that being said, we'll first get a motion to approve
the agenda. Councillor Furlong.
Motion to approve the agenda please. And Councillor McMann.
Seconded.
Thank you. Any question on the motion? Hearing none. All
those in favour signify by saying
aye. Those against? Motion carried. Are there any errors or
omissions on the February 19th,
2026 minutes? Is that anybody's noticed? No? Okay. We'll
accept them as submitted to us. And
the first order of business is Code of Conduct for Municip
al Volunteers Policy. And Natalie,
you're going to bring us up to date on that? Thank you,

Okay great.
Alright, thank you everyone for being here this afternoon.
We've got a pretty full agenda and the first thing we want to do is welcome Michelle and
the team from Karma to make their presentation.
And without further ado, Michelle do you want to come up and is it you that's going to make
the presentation?
Me.
Alright perfect.
Well welcome.
Thank you very much.
I'm just going to put my slides here in order.
I guess Natalie you're going to give the wave.
Thank you dear.
So you can I guess flip to the second one.
I just want to just take a moment to thank the council for the invitation today and for
the opportunity to present information on Karma, on who we are and what we do and to have the
opportunity to expand on the grant requests that I made on behalf of Karma and the community
of Amherst and people in need of assistance.
And I want to welcome everybody that's come out today to the gallery that's taken time
to come out of their day and to support us.
It's very much appreciated.
So thank you so much.
I don't know how...
I've got my slide here but I don't know how far away that is.
I've got my glasses on.
Can you all see that?
I apologize.
I'll read.
So Karma, we are an entirely volunteer driven organization.
We are a registered charity with Canada Revenue Agency.
We formed this organization in Amherst in July of 2012.
So we've been around 14 years in Amherst and we started out in Amherst but we have expanded

I acknowledge that our gathering today is taking place in Megahi, the traditional, unceded
and ancestral territory of the Mi'kmaq people.
I would also like to acknowledge that Nova Scotia has another unique people, those of
African descent whose legacy and contributions date back over 400 years, obviously predating
the very existence of this government.
We are all treaty people.
I wonder if I might have a motion for approval of the agenda.
Motion to approve the agenda.
And a seconder please.
It's been moved and seconded.
All those in favour, please signify by saying aye.
Are those contrary minded?
Hearing none, motion carried.
I'd like to have a motion for acceptance of the minutes, but I think you want to speak
to that first.
Thank you Mr. Chair.
We actually don't need a motion to accept them.
We just need to call for errors or omissions, but we did find an error in the minutes that
were distributed to you.
We still had Commissioner Hal Davidson as Vice Chair of the Police Commission and we have
changed that in the package.
Our Vice Chair is Commissioner Furlong.
So I believe that was the only error we noted.
Unless someone noted something else, I'll ask the Chair to accept those minutes.
Thank you.
Hearing no obvious mistakes, I move the minutes accepted as printed with the error corrected.
I have the privilege of welcoming our new members and they will be signing an oath in just a moment,
but it's Alex, you go by Alex and Chris.
You go by Chris …

Thank you. Good afternoon everyone. I'm going to call this
meeting to order. It's 4:30. Hello.
And we're going to start with our territorial land
acknowledgement.
I would like to acknowledge that our gathering today is
taking place in Mi'kma'ki,
the traditional, unceded and ancestral territory of our Mi'
kmaq people.
I would also like to acknowledge that Nova Scotia has
another unique people,
the people of African descent, whose legacy and
contributions date back well over 400 years
predating confederation of this land. We are all treaty
people.
I would like to call for approval of the agenda please, as
circulated earlier.
Thank you, Cindy. We're going to do the amendment. Oh,
right. That's true. If we can.
If we can. We would like to call a slight amendment to the
agenda.
Our working group session 2.6. We'd like to move that up to
2.2a, just following the accessibility, inclusion,
diversity and equity aid report from Mallory. Because the
working group session, that conversation
kind of works around that. So if that's okay with everyone,
that will be a slight amendment.
Hearing no objections to that, can we get approval of the
amended agenda?
Somebody?
Oh, yes.
Go ahead, Eva.
No, she's not a voting member. Sorry.
Sorry, Eva. Never mind.
I'll make a motion to approve the agenda as it is.
Thank you. As amended. As amended. With two points. Yes.
Thank you, Tammy.
You're welcome.
Do we have a seconder for that?
I'll see Marina.
Thank you. Sor …
