Okanagan Falls Hotel owners sought permission to remove landscaping features in parking lot so that more room was allowed for large beer trucks.

The Regional District board sided with area director Tom Siddon in not granting this concept but to have it go to an area planning commission meeting so that alternatives can be found.

The picture notes limited landscaping based on a 2010 permit for hotel modifications.

Alternatives like boardwalk plantings – or assistance to neighbouring properties were mentioned as directors indicated that no property owner should be left totally off the hook after agreeing to take an action via permit.
