Salt Spring Island Local Trust Committee Date: July 28, 2020 
Purpose: 
Implement the ‘Protecting the Coastal Douglas-fir Zone & Associated Ecosystems: An Islands Trust Toolkit’ on 
Salt Spring Island.
 
Background: 
In 2018, the Islands Trust developed a Toolkit that outlined methods for protecting the Coastal Douglas-fir 
and associated ecosystems. In 2019, the Salt Spring Island Local Trust Committee (LTC) identified ‘Protection of the 
Coastal Douglas Fir Ecosystem’ as a Strategic Priority item for the 2018-2022 term. This project will implement the LTC’s 
Strategic Priority and the Islands Trust’s Toolkit. 
 
From project launch, this project is anticipated to take place over two years in three phases: 
 
Phase 1: Information Gathering and Analyzing, Consultation and Education 
Phase 2: Policy and Regulation Development, Consultation and Education  
Phase 3: Implementation and Education 
 
The detailed workplan in this project charter addresses only Project Phase 1 in detail. Greater detail for Phases 2 and 3 will 
be developed following Phase 1 deliverables and determination of appropriate next steps

project are: 
  • maintain contiguous forest cover;
