Council passed the following resolution: That Staff be directed to investigate the feasibility of initiating a CRD service review and that the information be circulated to other municipalities in the Capital Regional District. At this time we are advising all the local municipalities in the capital region of our intent to initiate a service review, which is intended to identify and generate discussion about any existing CRD service budgets that are, or appear to be, inactive and unnecessary. Please let us know if the City of Langford is interested in working on this initiative. Sincerely, Carol Hamilton Mayor ### Contact / City Hall 3300 Wishart Road Colwood, BC V9C 1R1 CONTACT Phone: 250.478.5999 Fax: 250.478.7516 mayor@colwood.ca Hours: 8:30 am — 4:30 pm, Monday - Friday except stat holidays
