ALTERNATIVE APPROVAL ELECTOR RESPONSE FORM

Regarding Disposition of Park Land Bylaw No. 1090, 2022 and Disposition of Park Land Bylaw No. 1091, 2022

To authorize the disposition of park land by the Town of View Royal to the Capital Regional District

The Town of View Royal intends to dispose of two properties adjacent to Mill Hill Regional Park that are currently dedicated as park land to the Capital Regional District for $34,450 for the smaller property (Bylaw No. 1090) and $206,680 for the larger property (Bylaw No. 1091) (see “Subject Areas” on the map on the reverse side of this sheet). These properties would be placed under a covenant to ensure the properties are used only for park purposes, protected and preserved substantially in their natural state, and managed and maintained as part of the regional park system once they are owned by the Capital Regional District. Proceeds from the sale would be placed to the credit of a reserve fund for future park land acquisition.
