Protecting our greenway and community character
Our greenway paths are vital for recreation and community connection.
We have concerns regarding projects that could compromise the safety of green-way users. Furthermore, we are delving into how proposed developments might impact the integrity of our multi-generational family-dwelling neighbourhood.
- Official Community Plan accepted by the TOC Council on February 18, 2026 after a two year consultation to reach an agreed upon plan that honours Comox citizens' desire for development that respects and cares for the integrity of the town's multi-generational character and the natural ecosystems that are an integral part of it.
