The larger our membership, the greater our voice with Saanich Council on issues that affect Cordova Bay. We have an excellent working relationship with Saanich partly due to our healthy membership which gives us influence when addressing contentious issues.

Term of membership
The calendar year of joining CBACA or renewing a membership is determined as follows:
-
If payment for a new membership or renewal is made on or before the Annual General Meeting in a calendar year (typically held during April), the year of joining or renewing ends on December 31 of that same calendar year.
-
If payment for a new membership or renewal is made after the Annual General Meeting in a calendar year, the year of joining or renewing ends on December 31 of the following calendar year.
Rationale: A paid-up membership entitles a member to vote in the Annual General Meeting during each year of their membership term. Members joining or renewing after the Annual General Meeting in a calendar year are first eligible to vote at the AGM of the following year.
Examples:
-
Paid-up membership on or before the date of the AGM in a calendar year. A resident joins or renews their membership on February 24, 2024 and completes payment on or before the date of the April 2024 AGM. They are then eligible to vote at the 2024 AGM, and their year of joining or renewing ends on December 31, 2024.
-
Paid-up membership after the date of the AGM in a calendar year. A resident joins or renews their membership on September 24, 2024 and completes payment before the April 2025 AGM. They are first eligible to vote at the April 2025 AGM, and their year of joining or renewing ends on December 31, 2025.
-
Joins or renews membership by the date of the AGM, but doesn’t complete payment. A resident joins or renews their membership at the April 2024 AGM, but doesn’t complete payment that same day. They are not eligible to vote at the 2024 AGM and will be first eligible to vote at the 2025 AGM. Their year of joining or renewing ends on December 31, 2025.
