Sorry for the delay in posts, the A.G.M. minutes are coming when available.
In this blog we will comment on the main topics of last meeting.
- A motion has been made to write a letter to the recently established Swan Lake Business Association to support the proposed Regional Sewer Service for the 'Swan Lake corridor'.
- As for the "Stickle Road" issue it is probably been scrapped, for more information view the following link http://www.vernonmorningstar.com/news/303949061.html
- As for the Provincial Government wanting to change parts of the electoral Area B and C to Shuswap jurisdiction (http://www.vernonmorningstar.com/news/297833111.html.) The assoc. has sent a letter in opposition to it. Two main reasons is one, the electoral area that remains would face increase in local tax rate as well as two, the area residents that are moved to the Shuswap area would have to travel to Salmon Arm to vote instead of the current location of Vernon.
- As for the proposed municipal boundary agreement (between Vernon and R.D.N.O.) has been rejected. (http://www.vernonmorningstar.com/news/301921721.html)
These subjects were the main ones for discussion that affect local area residents. Anyone that would like a copy of the letter that was sent Re: Proposed Boundary Changes of B & C to the Shuswap can do so by emailing the assoc. at bxslca@hotmail.com. Also comments made below would be appreciated as well.
Thanks for your time.
