Prince George, B.C.- The latest alternate approval process will be up before Prince George City Council this evening as results of the petition against borrowing money for the new RCMP building will be presented.

The total cost of the building is $38.9 million and all but about a million dollars will be borrowed for this project.

"The report indicates the process failed".

Sorry,but what failed?
Did the Alternate Approval Process itself fail,or did the petition fail to get enough signatures to move ahead?

I have the same question as Andyfreeze. With only 1,147 people opposing it I'm assuming that the opposition failed but the first paragraph leads me to believe otherwise. Must be Monday...grumble, grumble, grumble.

It seems we have to become a police city and we have to house them somewhere with the newest and the latest. We will have to forgo the ARTS. How did we get here? We are asleep at the wheel.
