Back issue. The Denman Firestarter did not exist on 2022-03-10. This edition was compiled on 2026-10-01 from the public record as it stood on 2022-03-10, and contains nothing dated after that day — no outcomes, no hindsight. It is a reconstruction of what was on the record at the time, not a document from the time. This edition.

Denman residents can respond to a questionnaire on farming regulations, which the Denman Island Local Trust Committee endorsed in February, subject to changes discussed at its meeting.[1]

The committee’s February 15 minutes say the questionnaire was developed after a review of data, maps, reports and policy, along with interviews. Trustees discussed concerns about its length and complexity and the need to explain the limits of Islands Trust jurisdiction.[1]

The committee also directed staff to arrange and advertise a community information meeting in the spring. The questionnaire notice in this week’s Grapevine says it remains open until April 15, 2022.[2]
