Member of the Friends of the UNB Woodlot group, Mark D'Arcy, said Councillor Eric Megarity called him on August 16 to confirm the group was on the agenda for the committee's upcoming meeting. The group will have 12 to 15 minutes for their presentation, followed by time to answer any questions.

Time is of the essence, since the City of Fredericton will be asked to follow the lead of Sackville Town Council, and send a resolution to the Union of Municipalities of New Brunswick (UMNB), prior to their annual meeting in October.
