Local resorts seeking exemption from foreign buyers ban
Two area resort locations are hoping to be exempt from the foreign buyers ban.
SilverStar Mountain Resort and Predator Ridge Resort are asking the federal government for exemptions from the policy.
A letter from Predator Ridge to Vernon city council stated its “operational model mirrors that of other mountain resorts in the province” that are already exempt, and asked council to endorse its request to be left out of the ban.
Upon receiving the letter, Councillor Kari Gares made a motion to endorse the ask.
