Coldsteam Issues

Coldstream's zoning the surface of Kalamalka Lake within it's boundaries.

Mayor Jim Garlick says it's in response to things like pile driver barges left anchored off the foreshore and the possibility of houseboats.

There will be a public hearing for input at the August meeting of council.

And the mayor's asking Vernon for some advance notice when making changes to what the city bills the municipality for sewer.

He says they can understand the need when things like increased costs for the bio-solids facility come up unexpectedly, but fair warning's needed.

To cover the latest hike Coldstream will dip into reserves but some of the cost will go to the users.
