Stay connected with what’s happening in Courtenay. A new monthly City of Courtenay e-newsletter will deliver timely updates on City services, programs, projects and community events straight to residents’ inboxes.
“Our community deserves clear, accurate information about the decisions and projects that shape Courtenay,” explains Mayor Bob Wells. “This e-newsletter is a direct line from the City to residents, ensuring transparency and trust remain at the heart of everything we do.”
The free e-newsletter will feature Council highlights, links to City services, updates on major projects, recreation opportunities, and upcoming community events. Subscribers will gain a clearer picture of how City programs and services support quality of life in Courtenay.
“Our resident surveys consistently show that people want more direct updates from the City on planning, engagement opportunities, financial information and more,” says Anne Guillo, the City’s manager of communications. “Email is a channel residents find especially useful, and this new tool will help us share timely updates about City news, services and initiatives that matter to our community.”
The first issue will be released mid-January 2026 with future editions distributed at the beginning of each month. To mark the launch, subscribers can enter to win one of three $50 gift certificates to a Downtown Courtenay business. The random prize draw will take place on January 31, 2026.
