DoC Control Freaks

No lack of fodder from Coldstream's Mayor and Council.

Seems it's the Coldstream Ranch's turn...again.

This from the Agenda for the November 13, 2012 council meeting:

"THAT staff be directed to send a letter to Coldstream Ranch, advising that

parking of transport trucks on the property at the southeast corner of the

Kalamalka Road and Highway 6 intersection, legally described as Lot A,

Plan 29697, is not a permitted use in the Rural Two (RU.2) Zone and that the

appropriate process to legitimize such use is through the Ranch making

application for a temporary use permit."

"...is not a permitted use in the Rural Two Zone"?

Huh?

Let's do a little quiz here...

How does Coldstream's Mayor and Council think the Coldstream Ranch has moved their cattle to market in the past?

The past being referred to is the time before the list of permitted uses in Rural Two.
Indeed, the past refers to the time before zoning designations.


These control freaks, formally known as the District of Coldstream's elected officials, have forgotten the Coldstream Ranch also predates the District!

"The Ranch should revert to moving their cattle west along the meandering cattle-trail called Highway 6," suggests Kia.

A temporary use permit!
How moronic!
 
Anything to keep paperwork moving back and forth on bureaucrats' desks, eh?
