Clarence Louie to take on new role

July 28, 2020, 5:19 pm


CHIEF CLARENCE LOUIE

The Okanagan Nation Alliance (ONA) is pleased to announce that Chief Clarence Louie, who has served for the last 34 years as Chief of the Osoyoos Indian Band, has been elected by the ONA Chiefs Executive Council as Tribal Chair and spokesperson of the ONA.

Chief Louie is the longest standing Chief within the Nation and will no doubt provide strong leadership based on his years of experience, knowledge and past service to the Nation.

Chief Louie will be taking over as Tribal Chair from Dr. Grand Chief Stewart Phillip after his almost 16
years as Tribal Chairman. The ONA would like to acknowledge his lifetime commitment to the defense of Indigenous Peoples’ Title and Rights, his service to the Syilx Okanagan People and our advancement as a Nation.

The Okanagan Nation Alliance and its Chiefs’ Executive Council represent Syilx Okanagan Nation
members and are mandated to protect, advance and defend Syilx Okanagan Nation collective Title and
Rights.

Town of Osoyoos – decisions and discussions

July 28, 2020, 5:11 pm

REGULAR OPEN MEETING

 

Bylaws

  • Off-street Public Parking Regulation Amendment Bylaw No. 1274.05, 2020 was adopted.   The Town leases property at 6901 Main Street for boat trailer parking.  This parking lot provides an area in the community for out of town residents or visitors to park their boats and trailers which eases the parking burden on Town roadways.  The amending bylaw will amend the lot open and close times, possibly extend the operating season and review the current fees charged and what the administrative costs are associated to the boat trailer parking lot.
  • 2020 Annual Tax Sale Deferral Bylaw No. 1365, 2020 was read for a first, second, and third time and subsequently adopted under Ministerial Order No. M192. This bylaw defers the annual tax sale to September 27, 2021 in order to assist tax payers facing financial difficulties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Business

  • Council received the 2019 Draft Annual Report and made it available for public inspection. The report will be considered by Council at the August 17, 2020 Annual General Meeting being held at 1:00 PM at the Sonora Community Centre Gymnasium located at 8505 68th Avenue.
  • Council approved the Land Transfer Agreement between the Town of Osoyoos and The Owners of The Palms and authorized the Chief Administrative Officer to take all necessary steps to carry out the terms of the agreement. This agreement covers the lands donated by the Robert L. Conconi Foundation located at 6010 Maple Drive, which is adjacent to The Palms.

 

Reports

  • Councillor King encouraged residents and visitors to remember physical distancing protocols and wear masks when indoors when physical distancing cannot be achieved or in public spaces.
  • Councillor Bennett gave kudos to Town staff for their hard work during the busy summer months.
  • Councillor Harvey attended two Okanagan Regional Library budget committee meetings.
  • Mayor McKortoff noted that the Town is busy with many visitors who are here on vacation. She urged everyone to stay safe and remember that when you look after yourself you are helping the community. The Mayor encouraged everyone to wear a mask when out in public.

BC Emergency Health Services (BCEHS), who operates BC Ambulance, can clarify the facts about an incident on the Hike and Bike Trail written about on July 10, as well as general information on medical responses to the popular trail.

On July 6, BCEHS received a medical emergency call at 9:44 am for a bike incident along the trail. A local paramedic crew was immediately dispatched and arrived on scene 11 minutes later. The patient was cared for by paramedics and transported in stable condition to the hospital.

Paramedics in the South Okanagan have responded to hundreds of medical calls on the Hike and Bike Trail. Protocols on response to the trail have been in place for more than two decades, and include keys with access to the gates where vehicle access is restricted.

There’s never been an issue with access for our paramedics.

Those using the Hike and Bike Trail can be reassured that if emergency medical attention is required, BCEHS will send the closest ambulance to patients as quickly as possible.

JC – there is a huge demand for pictures of green grasshoppers.

Even more if you can make them purple

This hopper is a bit square….. just an example of an earlier debate we had.
