About Me
- Coldstreamer
- 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.

Why doesn't Coldstream pursue a Hotel or Motel possibly where Dutch's Campground is. I don' t think air bnb's and bed and breakfast are fair to all the residents who bought in Coldstream for quiet rural living. I currently live next to a "vacation rental" property and have to put up with extra traffic in our quiet cul de sac coming and going all day on their vacation and tenants parking on the road and impeding the proper snow removal in our neighborhood. If we do allow suites,air bnb's and bed and breakfast houses to do business will they be taxed at a higher rate as they have more people using our facilities? Many of these people operate these enterprises under the table and already do not pay tax on their income. If Coldstream does start legalizing suites and other facilities are they going to insist that these money making operations have off street parking so as not to inconvience their neighbors?
