Debate continues over a proposed RV park near Mabel Lake, east of Enderby, British Columbia. Developer Terry Lorsen and Sharon Lancaster seek a zoning change for commercial recreation, which would allow up to 127 sites. However, according to local reports, the Regional District of North Okanagan adopted amendments on June 17 limiting the park to 95 sites.
At a public hearing on June 4, more than 300 letters supported the project and 224 opposed it. Opponents cited public safety risks due to lack of fire and medical services, wildfire threats with a single evacuation route, and infrastructure strain. Sources differ on the number of sites: one says 127, another says 95.
