A Sneak-Peek at Community Input on Ideas for Warfield’s Future
Before the holidays, we thought we’d share some of the input gathered through the first community event and survey. The input will be part of what’s used to develop our Integrated Official Community Plan (IOCP) and a full summary will be released in January.
We heard from 194 respondents through the survey and event – a fantastic response rate! Thank you to all who participated, and a special thanks to Webster School teachers for gathering student input!
What you love most about Warfield: Not surprisingly, Warfield residents love the friendliness of others in our community and the sense of community that exists here. We also heard that residents love Warfield’s natural beauty, location and proximity to other places and amenities. Of course the pool, Webster School, and access to outdoor recreation and trails were also listed as favourites!
A number of ideas for Warfield’s future were presented, and there was a very high level of support from respondents for all of them! There were just two ideas that received more mixed reviews: backyard food production and allowing secondary suites throughout the community. Stay tuned in January for the full results!
We will have a chance to talk about these topics and many others further in 2017 as the IOCP process continues.
