Vernon and Coldstream votes in favour of referendum, Lake Country says no

“Our current recreational centre is aging. It is in desperate need of replacement and so this will serve the community and its growing needs.” In Coldstream, residents voted in favour of the district borrowing $8.5 million to upgrade and replace some of its aging infrastructure. The work includes erecting a new public works building to replace the existing over 60-year-old Quonset, as well as creating new storage facilities and completing renovations to the old fire hall.
Voters in Lake Country, however, voted against borrowing $8 million to purchase lakefront property for future community use. In 2006, Lake Country Council introduced a policy to review waterfront properties that come up for sale to decide whether the land is beneficial for the district to consider purchasing.
In Vernon, 24.4 per cent of residents got out to vote, while Coldstream saw a voter turnout of 24.6 and, in Lake Country, just 15.8 per cent had their voices heard.
