Comox Valley
Harbour Authority Mission: |
|
The Comox Valley
Harbour Authority marina was created in 1991, in response to a Department
of Fisheries Small Craft Harbours initiative to bring local community
management to the publicly owned Commercial Fishing Harbours on the BC
coast.
The Comox Valley Harbour Authority marina is a federally incorporated
non-profit corporation. Representation on our volunteer board is drawn
from the Commercial Fishing Fleet as well as from Courtenay, Comox, and
the Comox First Nations.
We used to be called "The Government Dock", but now our official name
is "Comox Valley Harbour Authority". But we still have the familiar red
railings! |

To operate,
maintain, and manage a public fishing harbour, with services and
facilities designed to allow opportunities to further enhance the economic
stability of the
harbour.
1. The first priority is to
provide safe and affordable moorage, and services to the local
commercial fishing fleet.
2. The second priority is to seek
opportunities to enhance the existing facility that will ensure the long
term economic, social, and environmental viability of the harbour.
3.
The third priority is to seek partnerships in creating marine (or
tourism related) enterprises that increase the financial stability of
the Comox Valley Harbour Authority, and therefore create opportunities
to meet the needs of the entire community.

big plans for a NEW marina office with even better facilities to
serve the Comox Valley fishermen and boating public. For further
