Thetis Infrastructure Task Group - Public Meeting at Forbes Hall (Tuesday, 2 July, 7pm)

The Thetis Infrastructure Task Group is made up of TIRRA (Thetis Island Residents and Ratepayers Association – Solid Waste Yard), TIPC (Thetis Island Port Commission – Community Dock & Boat Launch), TIID (Thetis Island Improvement District – TIVFD/Firehall) and TICA (Thetis Island Community Association – Forbes Hall Community Centre).

For the past 6 months our group has been working with the CVRD on their funding, planning, and assistive work for Thetis Island. Each year Thetis Island pays about 1/3 of Area G’s taxes, yet we only make up 1/4 of the population. Most funding goes to services Thetis Island residents rarely access. 

We would like to hear from the community. Property Tax Day is 2 July, and we thought it appropriate to hold the meeting on this date. 

There will be brief introduction statements by each of the four groups, and a 10-minute financial presentation by Paul Duncan before we open the floor to you. All concerns, questions and ideas will be recorded for use in our future meetings with the CVRD.

Looking forward to seeing you!
