To the Editor:
This is the kind of story that destroys people’s idea of beautiful BC.
The idea of needlessly destroying pristine crown land waterfront in order for a developer to make a quick buck should be unthinkable in BC. When the development is in full view from Highway 24, which is known for its picturesque wooded lake-viewpoints, makes this even more unbelievable.
I would like to add our names to the list of people against this proposed development on Lac des Roches.
We have been summer residents there wince 1998 and cannot believe that something the size of the “500 single-family unit and two hotel/resort complexes” would even be proposed on this quiet little lake.
Watershed crown lakefront land should be conserved and not destroyed by needless development especially on such an environmentally sensitive lake.
Thank you for your time and concern.
