Middleton Mountain Park Community Meeting

About 20 people showed up for the Middleton Mountain Park Community Meeting last night (over 500 letters were sent out to the neighbourhood advertising the event).

Residents discussed potential uses for the property owned by the School Board but offered to Greater Vernon Parks for their community park use. Planners will now summarize the results and will provide some preliminary plans to be again discussed by some volunteers from the community.

It would be nice if more people would become interested in the future of their neighbourhood. Staff and politicians are eager to listen to input from taxpayers but if taxpayers don’t speak staff and politicians must continue with input from those present at hearings. I will post future public hearings, public budget presentations and other public input sessions but it is up to you to come and let your voice heard.

About Me

I have been a resident of Coldstream since 1976. I have had 15 years of experience on Council, 3 years as Mayor. As a current Councillor I am working to achieve fair water and sewer rates and to ensure that taxpayers get fair treatment. The current direction regarding water supply is unsustainable and I am doing all I can to get the most cost effective water supply possible.
