Petitions bearing 700 signatures opposed to large-scale development at Lac des Roches, Birch Lake and Montana Lake have been forwarded to the premier, with a copy to the Minister of Water Land and Air Protection.
While mostly in the TNRD, the development abuts the CRD. Having much earlier designated these lakes ‘sensitive’, the CRD has voiced opposition to any large development. On a bitterly cold May 23, Friends of Lac des Roches and Birch Lake made a “floatabout” on the side of Lac des Roches, took photos and handed out information.
The group meets at 7 p.m., June 29 at Bridge Lake School.
