Overall, a good common sense discussion, analysis, and resolution. Money coming from FCM and ICLEI has strings attached? Yes or No. If yes, what are the conditions. Self governance and self sufficiency should be the goal. And it should be said that government and the people under its control have no money. The money they spend comes from you the taxpayer. Don't be cheap, because cheap is seldom good, and good is seldom cheap. Be frugal. The purpose of civil municipal government is to "ensure" local values and local control.
This will be useful. Great information, Maggie (as usual). Thank you :-)
