Chair Hancock invited the public to make comment. 
 
  Doug Latta referenced the Minutes of February 18, 2013 Local Trust 
  Committee Business Meeting and stated that it is the understanding of 
  the Galiano Land And Community Housing Trust (GLCHT) that the  
  Local Trust Committee (LTC) demands GLCHT to hold a Community 
  Information Meeting(s) (CIM). He stated that GLCHT does plan  
  on working with the LTC.  
 
Chair Hancock responded that GLCHT is not required to hold a CIM(s) 
but that the LTC encourages such. He stated that the Local 
Government Act requires the LTC to hold a CIM(s) and that an LTC 
CIM(s) is more formal than a CIM(s) GLCHT might hold.  
 
Doug Latta stated that GLCHT has compiled all of their reports into 
 one document and that such will be available to the community for 
 download via their website (http://galianoaffordablehousing.org/). He 
 stated that it is important for GLCHT to survey
