We need more intensive planning.


This next article is also connected to planned growth. However, a study lasting five years is hardly the way to do it. By the time the study is done and published it could be too late and we might be past the point of no return as far as sustainability is concerned. Observe the potential growth here in Coldstream (all you have to do is look up on the hills like Middleton Mountain, Coldstream Valley Estates, etc.). Then look up on The Rise, Turtle Mountain, the recently announced Sparkling Hills, etc. and you realize that the study might be a dinosaur by the time it commences.



Read the reports relating to Vernon Council's news.
Obviously, Vernon's citizens might be dismayed by the amount of money spent by their Council with nothing to show for it.
Predictably, the ever optimist Mayor believes that the half million dollars of taxpayers' money was well spent. Coldstream residents should remember that some of the money came from their pocket as the Library Board contributed $110,000 to the project.
I am glad to see that some City politicians picked up on Coldstream's initiative with regards to the future of the infamous "carbon tax".
