To this more than casual observer I am fascinated by
Councillor Kiss fighting for unbiased information and evaluation of the master
water plan. On the subject of water in Greater Vernon, Councillor Kiss is held
in high esteem. For the good of our future when it comes to water he would like
an unbiased second opinion. Good for him and it could be good for us .And yet
he votes not to request a current study on Governance in Greater Vernon. Why you ask? Because he is content with an
almost 20 year old study. Let’s just plug in the new numbers into an old
template. None of the communities in Greater Vernon are the same as they were
twenty years ago: and that fact is to be applauded. Greater Vernon has experienced much residential
growth and many changes over the past twenty years. Regrettably Coldstream
Municipal District Council continues to advocate the status quo and glories in
the provincial financial policies that make the municipal district appear to be
a viable option for the future. Perhaps the province needs to take a closer
look at communities who claim rural status but in the opinion of many; have
over the years have become suburbs to their larger urban neighbours.
