Dear Editor:
A remarkable 28-plus acres of waterfront property on Lake Okanagan between Okanagan Provincial Park and Fitzpatrick Estate Winery is presently listed for sale. The MLS listing is 175810/5.
B.C. has many beautiful parks, well used and enjoyed by many people. It is vitally important to have parkland along lakeshore to ensure that the general public have adequate access to lakes for generations to come.
This parcel of land would be a wonderful addition to an already very popular provincial campground, a legacy for generations to come.
I urge the public to contact our local MLA, Hon. Dan Ashton, and the Hon. George Heyman, minister of environment and climate change strategy asking them to consider purchasing this parcel of land for the future enjoyment of all B.C. residents and the many visitors who travel here from across the globe. Please let us not see this jewel bought by a developer and lost forever to generations of B.C. citizens.
