Subsidized Housing Story

https://www.westerlynews.ca/news/tofino-housing-project-clears-zoning-hurdle/

I guess there are more virtue signalling points with subsidized housing than salmon habitat preservation. The district has hundreds of acres of land yet they choose to build right next to MacKenzie Creek . There has been no land rezoned for a multi-lot  subdivision since the Yew Wood project a decade ago.

MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING OF THE DISTRICT OF TOFINO

COUNCIL HELD IN THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS ON

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2005, AT 7:30P.M.

George Patterson, Tofino Botanical Gardens, re: Dormitory Construction Project

              George Patterson presented information on the dormitory construction project for the Tofino Botanical Gardens, noting that he wanted to officially inform Council that they are moving ahead with the project.  He asked for a general letter of support.  He noted that research and education could be a significant economic sector for Tofino, but there is a lack of dormitory space.  Upon completion of the project, other institutions offering programs in the community will be able to utilize the dormitory.

              Mayor Anderson thanked Mr. Patterson for his presentation.

Transit Proposal

  This is being funded based on your property’s assessed value. That means the averageTofino home will pay way more than the average Ucluelet home. Why not just have a fixed annual fee that is the same for all ? Please vote against this unfair funding proposal .
