Vernon: Parks restructure moves ahead
Restructuring Greater Vernon’s parks, recreation and culture function is gaining steam.
Representatives from Vernon, Coldstream and Areas B and C resumed discussions Friday to discuss possible ways of changing the service.
“We’re coming close to wrapping this up. We’ve made a lot of progress,” said Allan Neilson-Welch, a consultant who has been facilitating the process.
“It sounds like we have some ability to find a solution.”
There was common agreement Friday that a restructured function would include the Performing Arts Centre, Wesbild Centre, future joint facilities, Kal Beach, Kin Beach, Swan Lake Park and the Grey Canal trail network, joint planning and land acquisition and an annual grant for the Boys and Girls Club.
Other parks and facilities would be controlled and funded by their respective jurisdictions.
