City Hall's updated summary of the SMEMS/SMEMP, as of September 2012
This is the City's revised summary of the Sumas Mountain Environmental Management Plan/Study as of September 2012. It talks about the existing OCP for Sumas Mountain (which is from the FVRD), and how it might be revised to include SMEMS/SMEMP items. It provides some interesting maps of so-called Species at Risk --- it acknowledges the data is "limited" but recommends more thorough assessments be completed when "development" applications are submitted. It also provides background info on SMEMS/SMEMP (where it came from, history).
