Texada Resilience means we can thrive as a more self-reliant island community

Texada Official Community Plan Vision Statement, 2021:

“Texada Island’s vision is to sustain an independent rural lifestyle with minimal regulations. We envision our
island economy fostering a diverse and balanced mix of resource industries, tourism, small business
enterprises, agriculture, and services for seniors. Texada Island will adapt to change carefully, while always
preserving our freedoms, stewarding the natural beauty of our island, our coast, and our island lifestyle.”
