We Want to Hear From You! Survey about watershed protection resourcing on Salt Spring Island

 

Since 2014, the Salt Spring Island Local Trust Committee has funded, through a special tax requisition, the Salt Spring Island Watershed Protection Alliance to support work related to the preservation and protection of freshwater resources on Salt Spring Island.

For the 2023-24 fiscal year, the Salt Spring Island Local Trust Committee is seeking feedback through an online survey on the proposed $75,500 special tax requisition for the coordination efforts of the Salt Spring Island Watershed Protection Alliance (SSIWPA).

Survey is open from January 26 – February 6, 2023.
