The TNRD board has handed a ticking bomb of conflicts to the incoming council at Sun Peaks over zoning and nightly rentals, says a mountain businessman.
Ryan Sparks, who owns property and a management company on the mountain, noted three of the 24 members of the Thompson-Nicola Regional District board absented themselves from debate last Thursday on a simmering Sun Peaks zoning issue due to potential conflicts.
He is wondering how many of the five incoming councillors who will be elected at Sun Peaks this spring will be left in the room when it comes time to discuss zoning and nightly rental of single-family homes.
