Reason for this request:

This request is to help make sure the KSA is being open and honest about how it spends student money. I want to see if any money has been used for things that aren’t part of regular day-to-day operations, like travel, gifts, or outside consultants. Student governments in other parts of Canada have been questioned about spending money on things that didn’t clearly help students. This request is part of a larger effort to see how the KSA uses its funds. It could help students and others see what the KSA’s priorities are and if the money is being handled responsibly.

  Neighbourhood Demographics Blog Post Neighbourhood: Routley – Census Tract 9330504.10 (Langley, BC) Routley is a suburban neighbourhood in the Township of Langley, British Columbia.

It's located between 196 Street and 208 Street, just south of 68 Avenue and north of 64 Avenue. The area is known for its quiet residential streets, new condo developments, pending SkyTrain addition, and its proximity to major shopping areas like Willowbrook Shopping Mall, Rio Can Centre and Smart Centres Langley. Abundant green space is provided by well-maintained parks such as Routley Park and Langley Meadows Park, while the presence of reputable schools like Langley Meadows Elementary enhances the neighbourhood’s appeal to families seeking a balanced and community-oriented lifestyle.
