Coburg Peninsula Interim Management Guidelines
The Coburg Peninsula Interim Management Guidelines (IMG) is a planning document adopted by the City of Colwood in February 2007. The recommendations in this document were developed based on consultations with the public, landowners and other stakeholders. When Colwood adopted the IMG the City appointed ELSI as the IMG Implementation Advisory Committee. In this role ELSI has worked with Colwood staff to develop a five-year implementation strategy, and continues to identify budget items and undertake coordinated activities.
