3. TOWN HALL AND QUESTIONS  
 
Graeme Shelford, representing the Thetis Island Residents and Ratepayers Association 
(TIRRA) presented the need for a road safety analysis on Thetis Island, due to several 
hazardous sharp bends in the road infrastructure, and requested a letter of support from 
the Local Trust Committee (LTC) for the TIRRA letter to the Department of Highways for 
a road safety analysis.  The Department of Highways will not take on this project unless 
a political body is involved in the process. 
 
Trustee Luckham mentioned that Cowichan Valley Regional District Director of our area, 
Mel Dorey would be on Thetis Island this Wednesday, and that Trustee Luckham would 
talk with him and bring up this important issue, noting that trails to the ferry have already 
been established on other islands. 
 
As a result of Town Hall, a new agenda item: 13.3 Road Safety Analysis on Thetis 
Island was added to further discuss this issue.
