This Public Hearing meeting of the Town of View Royal Council focused on the proposed Zoning Bylaw No. 900, 2014, Amendment Bylaw No. 993, 2018. The purpose of the bylaw is to implement an interim prohibition on the production, distribution, sale, and personal growing of recreational cannabis within the municipality. Public participants expressed opposition, suggesting the Town instead adopt existing frameworks from Victoria or Vancouver to avoid delays in legalization benefits and potential tax revenue losses. Council received reports and correspondence related to the matter before terminating the meeting.
