Report For Information to Be Delivered at November 28, 2022 Council Meeting

Interim CAO Schaffer will present a report to Council for information, providing an update on the Sooke Lions' proposal for John Phillips Memorial Park.

In short, the Sooke Lions are opting to "pause and reflect on what would best serve our community and our Club."

The Sooke Lions Club held a public information event on September 25th, 2022, to gather input from the public regarding their proposal to lease a portion of John Phillips Memorial Park for use as a community service facility; a subsequent survey was conducted to gather further information. A consultant was hired to compile the input and to provide a report to the Lions Club summarizing and presenting that feedback. A letter was provided to the District of Sooke noting the decision of the Lions.
