More on Golf Course Application

Further to Amie's post below, the developers of Summerland's proposed golf course and sprawling luxury residential subdivision have applied to purchase some crown land for the project. It's interesting to see the resort plan for "Giants Head Woodland Golf Resort", with its lush green fairways surrounding clear blue ponds. If you've ever walked through the trails in that area, you already know that it is a sandy desert with sagebrush and cacti -- it boggles the mind to imagine how much water from the aquifer will be required to create and maintain that unnatural landscape.

Land and Water BC is handling the application, and it looks more like a development corporation than a government organization acting to protect the interests of the public. The deadline for feedback on this application is June 18th. Comments can be sent through the LWBC web site or by mail to:
