This report shares news on that, as well as info from the survey which 626 Islanders participated in.

Area C Director’s Report: Strathcona Gardens tax for Quadra considered
From the desk of Regional Director Robyn Mawhinney
Hello,
The March 25 SRD Board meeting was certainly memorable, with between 80-100 residents of Quadra Island and Area C crowding into the boardroom’s public gallery and overflowing into the foyer. They were there to observe as the Board considered a report regarding adding Quadra Island (or all of Area C) as annual tax paying participants of the Strathcona Gardens Recreation Service. That topic is what this report focuses on.
