Calgary mayor Naheed Nenshi says there is a lot to do, but enough time to do it, in determining whether the city should bid for another Winter Olympics.
City council has a July deadline to decide on whether to throw its hat in the ring for the 2026 Winter Olympics and Paralympics.
A 17-member exploration committee, led by former Calgary police chief and politician Rick Hanson, is currently studying facilities, security, costs, public engagement and government support.
City council approved a $5-million budget last year for the Calgary Bid Exploration Committee (CBEC) to do its work.
City administration reported to council Monday on its working relationship and oversight of the exploration committee.
No members of CBEC were present, so few details of their work were revealed in council chambers.
