Today’s CVRD meeting was a big one.

After a long, messy, and pretty revealing debate, the committee voted in support of stopping staff and consultant work tied to the CZB and related planning changes until after the October 2026 election and a new board directed strategic plan.

That happened because the public pushed back hard.

People showed up.
People spoke clearly.
People refused to be steamrolled.

And for the first time in a while, it felt like some of the people at that table were finally forced to admit what the public has been saying all along,

This process has badly damaged trust.
The rollout was backwards.
And this is a lot bigger than just tweaking a few lines in a bylaw.

A few things were obvious today.

Multiple directors acknowledged that people feel unheard, betrayed, and shut out.

There was open discussion that the draft came before proper public engagement, which should never have happened in the first place.

There was also clear recognition that this is not some small technical cleanup. These planning tools are connected, and the public knows it.

Most importantly, people made it crystal clear they are tired of being treated like a problem in the communities they built, live in, and care about.

Farmers.
Families.
Landowners.
Rural residents.
Small property owners trying to hold onto a future here.

This recommendation still has to go to the board, so no, this is not over.

But today was proof that pressure works.

So thank you to everyone who wrote letters, showed up, asked hard questions, spoke from the heart, and refused to back down.

Keep paying attention.
Keep speaking up.
Keep the pressure on.
