I also hope to see a great turnout for this event:
Presentation: Integrated Resource Management (IRM) & Sewage Treatment in the CRD
On Wednesday, March 11th Esquimalt will host a public presentation on Integrated Resource Management (IRM) and Sewage Treatment in the CRD. Fidelis Resources Group, whom have been contracted by the provincial government, will present a financial and non-financial comparison of IRM to traditional sewage treatment. The public is invited to attend.
Date: Wednesday, March 11th, 2009
Time: 6 pm to 9 pm
Location: Council Chambers, Esquimalt Municipal Hall - 1229 Esquimalt Road
This session is going to be very educational and will give each of us greater understanding about what IRM is and how it compares with the options currently being discussed at the CRD. While the CRD is considering options that include resource recovere there is not yet an option that is truly IRM. Please come and see the possibilities!

FASD: Finding Hope
Please check out this documentary on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder on the Knowledge Network "FASD: Finding Hope". It was on last night at 10pm and it repeats tonight at 2am and Thursday at 11pm.
It follows the lives of 4 families living with FASD and gives an honest glimpse into what they face each day. It's an hour well spent.

Bus Route Proposal
BC Transit is planning a bus route from the Royal Jubilee Hospital area into Vic West or Esquimalt. One option under consideration is that the bus will service Esquimalt and come to dockyard. The other option has it going only through Vic West.
Residents can give feedback at one of the upcoming information sessions
Monday, February 16, 2-6pm, VicWest YMCA (521 Craigflower Rd)
Thursday, February 19, 3-7pm, Belfry Theatre, 1291 Gladstone Avenue (at Fernwood Avenue)
AND fill out a short survey online here: http://www.bctransit.com/regions/vic/news/bay_street_rjh/default.cfm
Please fill out the online form! I personally feel really strongly that having more bus service to Esquimalt would be a huge benefit to us!
Councillor Randall Garrison is also passionate about this issue and he has added a direct link button to the survey from his website. If you're having trouble with the link I provided just google Randall Garrison and you'll find him easily. Thank you Randall for all your work on this and keeping me in the loop!
