The Community Partnership Committee on April 13 recommended that council adopt a 'notwithstanding' agreement for the 2026 Strawberry Festival and asked that the council treat the instrument as emergency legislation so permitting and contract work can be completed in time.
The presenter said the 2026 agreement is largely unchanged from 2025 and that the requested boundary expansion originated with the festival organizers; the expansion would only be implemented if the organizers decide to proceed. The presenter noted the park board and recreation board had already approved the request and that this action formalizes the arrangement.
Committee members raised no objections and the group agreed unanimously to request emergency legislation so that permits and final contracts can be executed in the near term. The transcript does not record a roll‑call tally.
