To The Editor: School District 8 Kootenay Lake does not own the Central school building that houses Wildflower school, or the land that it sits on.
A legal document, verified by a Nelson lawyer, and dated June 28, 1902, stipulates that the Province of British Columbia gave The Corporation of the City of Nelson “to have and to hold the said parcel or lot of land, and all and singular the premises hereby granted, with their appurtenances, unto the said The Corporation of the City of Nelson and its successors for ever, in trust for school purposes and as a school site.”
