Not only was this agreement reached under questionable circumstances which would seem to justify it being thrown out and a proper negotiation brokered by competent individual/s with experience.
Word has it that the draft the Board voted on and was sent to the Regional District came back with changes not approved by our Board. The clause of 5 years has been changed to one which deals with our reservoir being on KIP lands. KIP could advise us to remove everything from the property with very little notice.
Are we going to stand by and allow this Water Infrastructure Agreement to proceed unchallenged when it is so obvious it was mishandled and our elected officials were not acting as a Board?
I am not opposed to development. Everything changes. Nothing stays the same. Changes are good when it is for the benefit of all. Gradual steady growth and change ensuring we are not destroying what can never be recovered.
