Public Information Meetings on New Soil Deposit Bylaw

The CVRD are looking to introduce a soil deposit bylaw, in hopes of preventing scenarios like the Shawnigan Lake contaminated soil dump from happening in the future.
Bylaws Manager Robert Blackmore says the average resident who is bringing a truckload of soil for landscaping won’t really be affected by the bylaw, and will not be required to pay a fee or deposit.
The CVRD is hosting a number of meetings throughout the week.
Monday, April 24 6:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m.
Cowichan Lake Sports Arena

Tuesday, April 25 12 p.m. – 2 p.m.
