Several concerned citizens discussed their worries surrounding the potential federal designation of the Big Sky Country National Heritage Area during the petitions and communications portion of Tuesday’s city commission meeting.
The speakers lined up to express their worries to the commission about the potential for private property rights being infringed upon. Donna Anderson said she’s had a ranch in Cascade County for a “contiguous 128 years.” She said it’s been her family’s objective to protect and preserve their ranch, with the goal to improve and pass it to the next generation.
“We ve been given no option or avenue to withdraw our property from this designation,” Anderson said. “If it s such a great opportunity, let each property owner decide for themselves if they want to be involved.”
Neighbours in Cranleigh Court woke to some bright floral displays made entirely of wool and hub caps after the area was bombed with yarn. Residents at the Cranleigh Court community hub have been busy painting, knitting and climbing ladders in order to create the giant flowers that are displayed along Tyndale Avenue in Yate. The eight flowers are made with reused hubcaps that are then decorated with wool and paint to make bright displays. Katie Hanning a spokesperson the Cranleigh Court community hub said: We made them to brighten up the street and give people a smile. Due to the great feedback we received so far, we may even look to do some additional streets in other ways soon.
