It was noted that a number of people don’t understand what is taking place with the
Regional Review and that if they understood what was at stake they would take
more of an interest in the review.
It was suggested by the BIA that boundaries be determined by county wide
consultation.

position.

If the province determines that changes are to be made then the Oxford
municipalities should have the opportunity to provide recommendations regarding
those changes.
