Boulevards and Beautification

Colwood is growing, and many new roads and landscaped boulevards are being built and paid for by developers according to City standards and requirements.

Considering costs

Every inch of new landscaping comes with new maintenance costs for the City. Council must make decisions about the budget and resources required to maintain boulevards.

This discussion provides the opportunity to consider the landscaping and beautification of existing high visibility locations on major routes in Colwood.
