March 2016 Pre Annual General Meeting

Hi all,
 
Minutes from the last executive meeting are as follows:

 Old Business:
  • B.X. parcel of land that may become a park is closer to completion.
  • Fire Hydrants expansion program is continuing, Regional District Areas "B" & "C" have been mapped, showing areas with sufficient density and water pressure for the next stage.
  • Brentwood Road residents concern about upgrades on the road (which have already been completed by now by the active interest party for the proposed gravel pit) inquiries equaled no response from Ministry Of Transport.

 New Business:
  •  A local resident had video footage of changes/damages to his property due to changes in the environment due to work done to the Foothills Development using berms and diversion of the natural water flows onto his property.  Area on his property is now flooded and water saturated it is more of a swamp.  To the extent now that he can't use agricultural equipment or graze cattle and thus may lose his agricultural status.  The City of Vernon, or developers are currently not taking any responsibility for the damage.  Last note he has hired an independent Hydrological/Geotechnical Engineer personnel.
  • Parks Manager, Keith Pinkoski gave a power point presentation outlining which parks come under his jurisdiction and services provided.
 This ends the minutes of this meeting.  The next meeting that was held on April 19th, 2016 was the Association's Annual General Meeting which the minutes from are still pending. Will be posted on the blog once available...

Until next time,
