Full RecordingDestination Greater Victoria/Tourism Victoria Membership - Councillor Rogers
Council approved joining Destination Greater Victoria to boost local tourism and economic development, particularly supporting the long-term goal of building a hotel.
"Councillor Rogers argued that DGV membership would aid the town's goal of securing a hotel along the Rapid Bus Corridor/VGH area, assist with regional tourism strategy (like the Gorge Waterway), and promote local historical amenities (e.g., Craigflower Manor, Six Mile). Council unanimously supported the motion, viewing the prorated cost as a worthwhile investment in regional integration and economic promotion."
