Radium Hot Springs mayor Mike Gray says he is pleased to see feedback on the official community plan (OCP) coming in droves.
Gray says having a document available for the public to peruse has spurred further conversations.
“The official community plan has been getting a lot of feedback now that we have an actual draft,” said Gray.
“It has certainly woken up a lot of the sleeping giants in the area who have suddenly decided to get involved, which is absolutely fantastic.”
Gray says the community has highlighted several top priorities for the Village.
“Where we’re going to concentrate our efforts on our business development, addressing the housing situation, planning for short-term vacation rentals and environmental protection,” said Gray.
While the public survey closed on May 5, the Village is still welcoming residents’ thoughts.
“It’s not too late, we’re looking for that feedback and we’re looking to identify as many positives as we can and catch any revisions that need to be made,” said Gray.
