Back to Search2022-2026 Financial Plan amendments
The Regional Board has approved the following amendments to the 2022-2026 Financial Plan:
- Add $116,000 to the Cart Group Purchase to allow ordering new curbside collection carts to ensure an adequate inventory to respond to supply chain and manufacturing delivery delays.
- Reallocate $149,350 from two previously approved projects for Glen Canyon Regional Park to allow emergency repairs and cover the costs of insurance deductibles to flood-damaged sections along the Mission Creek Greenway.
- Reduce the transfer to the Regional Rescue Program operating reserves by $30,000 and add $30,000 to operating expenditures to allow crucial planned maintenance and replacement of radio and dispatch towers.
Parks Services policies updated
The Regional Board has approved a new Parks naming, renaming and dedications policy. This updates a 1979 policy and provides options for pre-colonial Indigenous place naming, renaming and dual naming in regional and RDCO community parks. It also clarifies the process for Board consideration for new park names and proposals for renaming RDCO parks. Since 2014 the RDCO and Westbank First Nation have agreements for managing Black Mountain - sntsk‘il’ntən Regional Park and the protection and conservation of cultural sites in Regional Parks. Over the past 12 years RDCO Parks Services has actively been engaged with syilx/Okanagan communities in the dual naming of select trails in regional parks.
