Inter-Municipal Business Licence Referral

Motion 31 · Council Meeting, May 9, 2023

Referred Moved by Adriane Carr, Brian Montague

Summary

Motion proposed directing staff to explore an inter-municipal (mobile) business licence for home healthcare support workers across Metro Vancouver, in coordination with provincial and municipal counterparts.
Background: provincial mobile business licence program already covers trades, catering, and mobile salons; home support workers travel across municipal boundaries but currently require separate licences.
Context: City's Age-Friendly Action Plan and support for seniors and people with disabilities underpin the rationale.
Referred to the May 10 Standing Committee on City Finance and Services to hear from speakers before debate and decision.
