Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - There have been a number of Cortes Island matters at the Strathcona Regional District (SRD) this month.
Mark Vonesch, the Regional Director for Cortes Island, is now the Vice Chair of the Electoral Areas Services Committee (EASC). Cortes Island’s Dog Control Service Bylaw is on its way to the Inspector of Municipalities for approval. Linnaea Education Centre and Mansons Hall have both applied for Federal Gas Tax funding to purchase a heat pump and were denied. Director Vonsech is looking for ways to support them.
