Recommendation

[At the December 10, 2025 Capital Regional District Board meeting, the Board discussed and carried the following recommendation from the Regional Parks Committee meeting of November 11, 2025:

The Regional Parks Committee recommends to the Capital Regional District Board:

1.                     That the planning, implementation, and operation of all regional trails on the Gulf Islands-such as those identified in the Gulf Islands Regional Trails Plan-be referred to the CRD Transportation Committee for consideration;

2.                     That this report, including the Gulf Islands Regional Trails Plan, be referred to the Salt Spring Island Electoral Area Administration for information, in recognition of the local interest in establishing additional community trails in village sites on Salt Spring Island; and

3.                     That staff report back with a list of all CRD Regional Parks plans, policies, and bylaws requiring amendment or repeal as a result of establishing the Regional Transportation Service, and outline the process and timeline for completing these changes.]
