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.
