Dear Colleagues,

RE: CRD Board Transportation Governance Engagement Workbook Package

Further to my June 16, 2023, letter advising of the Capital Regional District (CRD) Board engagement on transportation governance, please find the attached transportation governance workbook package.

As mentioned in my previous correspondence, we are seeking your support to complete the workbook and have it endorsed by council resolution within a rather short turnaround time. We appreciate the effort required to help us meet our target response date of Friday September 29, 2023.

The questionnaire offers the opportunity for your organization to provide valuable insight into challenges, expectations and aspirations for transportation governance in the capital region. This engagement process has been developed to build consensus on the scope and scale of the governance change required to achieve regional mobility objectives as set out in the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP).

In the workbook package, you will find three documents:

• Introduction and background
• Questionnaire
• Glossary

Please return your completed questionnaire with council resolution to Alesha Hayes at ahayes@crd.bc.ca by Friday September 29, 2023. If you are interested in having CRD staff present to council/organization, please contact Alesha to arrange a time.

Thank you for your assistance with this matter.
