New soil moving bylaw for RDCO

The Regional District of Central Okanagan (RDCO) Board has adopted a new Soil Removal and Deposit Bylaw for Electoral Areas East and West.

The bylaw regulates the removal and placement of soil on rural properties.

The RDCO said it will help protect public safety and the environment while providing landowners and developers with a clear and predictable process.

It said most routine activities will not require a permit.
