Chapter Six: Charting a Path

By the 2010s, the Trust’s role in the Basin had grown far beyond what its founders originally envisioned. In addition to providing the region with financial benefits, the Trust had become a facilitator, collaborator, creator and problem-solver. It took on new challenges, such as establishing a regional broadband network. In 2015, the Trust led a public engagement process called Our Trust, Our Future to establish future priorities, and strategies to achieve them. The Trust and Basin residents continued to lay a solid foundation for the future and together strive towards social, environmental and economic well-being.
