WE HEARD YOU: Did you know…?
Each year we send out a survey and ask for your feedback. Last spring, we asked you two questions about your quality of life in your community:
- How could all services in your town better meet your needs?
- Is there anything that you would like to see in your community that speaks to your interests?
We got back lots of ideas about services, about recreation, and about transportation. Thanks!
Since we looked at the ideas and suggestions we got back, it seemed to us that people might not know that their communities are working hard to meet these needs – so we thought we would share what we know is currently going on.
Here is some information about what’s going on in the Okanagan, and in our Province:
