On September 17, the Cowichan Valley Regional District and Economic Development Cowichan hosted a session at Forbes Hall to discuss internet and cellular connectivity on Thetis and Penelakut Islands. We want to thank all those who attended for their interest and active participation in this project. Your feedback will help us create a Community Connectivity Plan that makes sense for Thetis and Penelakut.
The slideshow that was presented at the meeting is available to view here:https://ln5.sync.com/dl/2cba4f1f0/2er3fbz4-fj6hsq3z-c7ccpme6-g6w7zct8. You’ll also find more resources and videos on connectivity and our project on the website at https://www.planyourcowichan.ca/connect.
With your feedback in hand, we will now work with our consultants from IBI Group to develop a Community Connectivity Plan for Thetis and Penelakut, which will provide recommendations for achieving improved connectivity on the islands. The plan will be shared with the community when complete.
If you have questions or additional feedback to share, please contact Economic Development Cowichan at edc@cvrd.bc.ca or 250-746-7880.
