The District of Lake Country will researching to develop a bylaw to regulate temporary farm worker housing.
The bylaw would be in the best interest of the farmers, and others living around the farm areas, said Coun. Blair Ireland. Âé¶¹AV and the regional district are also looking into regulating temporary farm worker housing, he said.
During a regular council meeting, Tuesday night, April 4, Coun. Penny Gambell said she didn’t think being consistent with the regional district was necessary.
Ireland said “I certainly want us to have a look at what the regional district is doing. If it isn’t suitable to Lake Country, I would hope we wouldn’t do it.â€
Currently, there is no bylaw in Lake Country.
