Burns Lake: Artisans prepare to relocate
The interpretive centre building on Hwy. 16 will again have a tenant as of September.
During a recent council meeting mayor and councillors agreed to a proposal submitted by the local artists operating the Lakes Artisan Centre.
The building, previously intended to be an interpretive centre with First Nations involvement and partly paid for with Softwood Industry Community Economic Adjustment Initiative grant funding administered by Western Economic Diversification has conditions on any future use including the inability of the village to sell the property.
Tim Palmer chief administrative officer for the Village of Burns Lake said to council that he had been contacted by Western Economic Diversification who had informed him the building was not allowed to be sold under conditions of the grant funding.
