New Market Council Considers $580K Waste Pact, 2025 Financial Statements

The New Market Council held an electronic meeting on June 22 with an agenda that included a proposed extension of waste collection services worth up to $580,000 and a construction administration contract of nearly $396,000. Minutes from that session and other late-June public meetings had not been published as of July 5, so outcomes remain uncertain.

Council

Council members were set to review the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements and a report on term accomplishments. The agenda also listed an extension of the waste collection agreement with GFL Environmental Inc. for up to $580,000 and a contract with Aquafor Beech Ltd. for construction administration services not to exceed $395,789.75.

Other business included an amendment to Procurement By-Law 2014-27 to align with the Buy Ontario Act, a residential parking study update, and routine correspondence.
