    Madam Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Yellowknife South, that Bill 9, Municipal Statutes Amendment Act, be read for the second time.

    Madam Speaker, this bill amends the Charter Communities Act, the Cities, Towns and Villages Act, and the Hamlets Act. The amendments enable community governments to:

    • • make bylaws authorizing the refinancing of long-term debt without the approval of the Minister or the voters, so long as the principal amount being borrowed does not exceed the principal amount then outstanding under the original debt;
    • • require that notice of loss or damage relating to conditions on highways or in public places controlled by a municipal corporation be given in writing to the senior administrative officer;
    • • transfer charges for unpaid municipal services to the property against which they were incurred in the same manner as arrears for property taxes.

    Thank you, Madam Speaker.
