municipal property. The main criterion is that charities or non-profit groups that have registered charity status through the Cana- da Revenue Agency can set up their cloth- ing donations box on city property as long as they have a permit to do so from city hall.

The WRT Team asks residents, busi- nesses, and other industries throughout the watershed to continue to reduce their water consumption by at least 10% in to encourage residents, businesses, and mu- nicipalities to continue voluntary conserva- tion measures.” directing city administration prepare “a de- tailed report” for council and its advisory committees to review about whether there is a need for regulations dealing with cloth- ing donation boxes on private land. The report will consider whether such setups would require a business licence even for a non-profit group, what kind of signage is necessary for a clothing dona- tion bin, including identifying the operator of the dropoff site as either an actual char-

The report is due for council review dur- ing the first quarter of next year.

Finch | A damp fall has provided some re- lief to a thirsty region. Yet, following an abnormally arid sum- mer, water levels in the district remain very low.
