IN BRIEF Squadron review Elected officials from all levels of government will gather this Friday in Halton to discuss how to pay for the implementation of the Provinces Places to Grow plan. The Canadian Urban Institute (CUI), in partnership with the Region and in conjunction with the GTA and Hamilton mayors and chairs, will host a one-day confer- ence Friday called Building Complete Communities: A Summit to Explore New Ways to Afford Sustainable Growth. While we plan for how our com- munities will grow over the next 25 years, financing the infrastructure needed to accommodate growth pre- sents a significant challenge, said Regional Chair Gary Carr. For more information on registra- tion for the event contact Linda Varekamp at 416 365-0816, ext. 221.

To coincide with the picnic, HOPE will ask Halton Region and its municipalit ies (Burlington, Halton Hills, Oakville and Milton) to fly the rainbow pride flag from June 2-7.
