Slim majority for ‘yes’ on Metchosin suites

The discussions in Metchosin council and committee meetings regarding detached secondary suites

The discussions in Metchosin council and committee meetings regarding detached secondary suites were mainly sparked by the figure of four per cent advantage for the “yes” side.

But look back to the math: 968 “yes” plus 887 “no” makes 1,855 votes, and 968 out of this is 52.19 per cent, what means a majority 2.2 per cent instead of four per cent.

Metchosinites should be aware of this in their future considerations.
