Ignoring Their Own Rules

They make the parking rules, i.e. how many spaces must be provided for a, say, commercial development.
Presumably because the development attracts people who arrive in vehicles.

The District of Coldstream (and previously, the Regional District) however had no qualms about Sovereign Park having insufficient parking, and "when the cul-de-sac area on Ormsby Drive is filled up, (cars) move up the street, taking up one side of the road," states a resident according to today's Morning Star newspaper.

Seems the 20 parking spaces within the park proper aren't sufficient in summer.
So park attendees access Sovereign by parking on adjacent Ormsby Drive, a residential street.
Who could've predicted that?
Ahem

You can't blame the District of Coldstream entirely.
They've only recently been handed the park(s) in their jurisdiction from the Regional District of North Okanagan.

But now that Coldstream is considering closing Ormsby Drive to non-resident parking (perhaps even for residents), they'll be blamed for vehicles finding a spot whenever and wherever they can.

But they'll study it for a while.
A novel idea...seeing whether the park does indeed attract people in vehicles.

"Maybe the 20 parking spaces were sufficient in winter," grins Kia. 

Ought'a be a one week hiatus for a bureaucrat to sit in a vehicle with a traffic counter.
Or a consultant.
