Hi Everyone,
We are getting this entry in after a small hiatus. So the entries of topics are as follows:
1) Obviously, the election is a major event. Some areas have more candidates than others. However, if you support your local representative then do so by voting, not necessarily for the them but the issues that also appear on the ballot. (Borrowing for the Master Water Plan, School District representation, etcetera.)
2) The status of the proposed gravel pit, near the BX Creek has been halted. However, this whole application process could be restarted, details aren't yet known. The "Soil Extraction" By-Law came up for third reading at the last R.D.N.O. meeting and was passed. The By-Law requires permit approval from the District before topsoil (and/or aggregate) are removed or added.
3) Water referendum is this November and the history of this issue is longer and convoluted to be entirely covered in the space of this blog. For more official information on the master water plan please refer to the link. http://www.rdno.ca/index.php/services/engineering/water/greater-vernon-water/master-water-plan and more information on the referendum itself is at this link http://www.rdno.ca/index.php/services/engineering/water/greater-vernon-water/water-vote .
4) For Area C constituents the proposed expansion for the BX Fire Hall was discussed at the last meeting. The executive is unanimous in support for this proposal. For the location of the fire hall provides faster response times for many locations within the Electoral Area C. Also, the general opinion (during discussion) was this upgrade was requested (and needed for operational improvement) from the Fire staff.
So if anyone would like to leave comments or suggest topics for future blogs, please do so in the comment section below. Also if you would like more information, the assoc. can be emailed at 'bxslca@hotmail.com'.
Until next time, keep blogging.
