Courtenay Urban Forest Strategy seeking public input

If you haven’t yet provided feedback to the City of Courtenay on urban forests in the community, it’s not too late.

One year after beginning a comprehensive exploration and community consultation into Courtenay’s urban forest, the draft plan is now available for public feedback. This week begins the 30-day public consultation period which includes options to have your say through a short survey, a public open house or through written feedback to City staff.

View the draft plan and take the survey online at www.courtenay.ca/urbanforest until Thursday, May 23. Hard copies of the survey are available at City Hall, Lewis Centre and Florence Filberg Centre. A public open house will take place Thursday, May 2 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at the Florence Filberg Centre Evergreen Lounge with a short presentation at 6 p.m.
