FOCI's recomendations for revising Cortes Island's Official Community Plan

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - On Monday, Dec 11, the Strathcona Regional District will be holding an open house on updating Cortes Island’s zoning bylaws at Manson’s Hall. This is the first of a series of steps that will also include a revision of the island’s Official Community Plan. The Friends of Cortes Island has prepared a 22 page study of suggested recommendations for revisions to Cortes Island’s plan for the future. 


“It's really critically important at this moment in history that we make sure that every decision made in the community plan is made taking climate change and  climate adaptation into account,” said Forrest Berman-Hatch, author of the report.
