The official results for the French Creek School and Parkland Purchase Referendum have been confirmed from general voting day, two advance voting opportunities and mail ballots and have been received by the Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN) Board.
The results are as follows:
• Yes votes: 265
• No votes: 144
Next Steps:
Once the purchase is completed in early 2026, RDN staff will prepare a report for the Electoral Area F Parks and Open Space Advisory Committee to review and provide recommendations to the Electoral Area Services Committee and RDN Board for approval. The report will outline the options for engagement with the community and user groups as well as potential uses for the buildings and parkland.
Residents in Electoral Area F are encouraged to sign up to the French Creek School project page at www.getinvolved.rdn.ca/french-creek-school-and-parkland-purchase-referendum to receive updates and notifications about ways to participate directly via email.
