Council to consider adventure park application

Spallumcheen council will discuss the plan for a mountain adventure park at its meeting tonight.

Patti and Jack Wood are seeking a zoning text change to allow the park on Powerhouse Road, featuring a mountain coaster, ziplines and other activities on a five acre site.

Some residents and farmers voiced water, traffic and other concerns at a public hearing last month.

Staff are recommending council give third reading, but hold off on final approval until the applicant has registered a covenant on the site.
