Archive notice, October 20, 2026: The October 17 date in this preview has passed. This article describes the city's advertised ballot and does not report a result.

Colwood's Kids Vote was scheduled at City Hall on Saturday, October 17, alongside the municipal election. The children's ballot offered two ideas for the waterfront: public binoculars for watching marine life, or a birdsong player to help identify the Lagoon's migratory birds.

The city's election page listed general voting from 8am to 8pm at City Hall, 3300 Wishart Road.

BC Transit announced free Victoria transit and handyDART rides for October 17. That dated offer has ended.
