Islands Trust Council Re: Feedback on the 2019/20 Proposed Budget The Saturna Island Ratepayers and Residents Association (SIRRA) writes to provide comment on the proposed Islands Trust budget for fiscal 2019/20. SIRRA was established in 2006 to provide a forum for property owners and residents to discuss, and to challenge, when needed, legislation, regulation, taxation and policies of governments and government services relating to Saturna Island.

The Aug 31, 2011 LTC meeting was an extended session that ran from 12:30 pm until 6 pm. This meeting was well attended, particularly through the Community Information and the Public Hearing sections on proposed Bylaw 104 that were scheduled as the first main items. These sessions ran past 4 pm.

Ron Hall, on behalf of SIPOA gave a presentation [see below], as a delegation, providing a summary of the letter that SIPOA had submitted on August 17th, commenting on Bylaw 104.
