The Association of Vancouver Island and Coastal Communities showed strong support for the Island Corridor Foundation at their annual conference this weekend.
They passed a motion calling on the federal government to release the committed $7.5 million in federal infrastructure funds was overwhelmingly endorsed.
Foundation co-chair Dr. Judith Sayers says, despite the Regional District of Nanaimo pulling its funding for the service, there is lots of support for the project.
In the meantime to try to establish better communication between all the parties involved a Local Government Liaison Committee has been struck.
The committee is the result of complaints of a lack of clear and transparent communications with local governments.
