Courtenay completes over three major projects in 2019; annual report

The City of Courtenay has released the draft 2019 Annual Report highlighting progress on Council’s strategic priorities, as well as the audited financial statements.

Some of the highlights of the report include completing several significant community planning documents like the Connecting Courtenay Master Transportation Plan and Cycling Network Plan, the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, and the Urban Forest Strategy. 

Courtenay launched an update of the Official Community Plan in the fall.

Courtenay also became one of the first local governments in Canada, and the first in B.C, to make its asset management program into a formal bylaw.

The annual report provides an overview of various projects completed in 2019, including collaboration on housing, road and cycling network improvements, pedestrian safety upgrades, new technology, and numerous other activities throughout the year.

The report will be considered by city council at the August 17th council meeting.
