Community Garden Policy

"THAT the Committee recommend to Council that the Town approve, in principle, a revision of the existing Community Garden Policy No. 5200-015 to better align with the policies in neighbouring municipalities including: a shift of administrative and management responsibilities from the Town to a nonprofit community garden society; clearly defined roles, responsibilities, and expectations of the Town, a non-profit community garden society, and plot holders; a requirement for a land use agreement between the Town and a non-profit community garden society; and the use of generalized language in anticipation of future community gardens to be developed in View Royal; AND THAT staff work with the current non-profit society (View Royal Park Community Garden Society) on any proposed policy changes so that a mutually beneficial agreement can be reached."
