Skill Building & More

Support Us

Welcome to Local Livelihoods, a community economic development organization advocating for sustainable local livelihoods, and fostering place-based skill-building.

 

Sustainable economic resilience arises naturally and in wonderful ways when good regulations support the creativity of a skilled community.

​

Sign up for our newsletter! We're just getting started, and there's so much more on the way. Stay tuned for updates and information about discussion circles, workshops, apprenticeships, and initiatives.

Dedicated to making here and now a good time and place to be.

Ground Truthing Enforcement

What questions should a survey on experiences with bylaw enforcement ask residents?

We are gearing up to "ground truth" enforcement by surveying residents about their experiences.

 

To start, we are soliciting questions from you--residents of the Southern Gulf Islands.  

​

What would you like to know about how bylaw enforcement  works on the ground?

​

Your questions can be with regard to either the Islands Trust or the CRD (Capital Regional District), or both.

​

Once we've received your questions we'll combine them into a survey for residents in the SGI.
