Watershed access a The weekend at KAR concern for Council C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

Although access to both the Mark Creek and Matthew Creek watersheds is controlled, there is no doubt that there is considerable traffic in both, from logging to recreational use. It has been an ongoing concern for the Watershed Committee and for Kimberley City Council and this week two separate areas of concern came up; one because of an application for trails on Bootleg Mountain and another a notification of BC Timber

Sales road building for the Mark Creek watershed. Some of the trails proposed would be in the Matthew Creek watershed and Council has indicated it has concerns about that. Coun. Darryl Oakley has stated repeatedly his concern about the lack of control the City of Kimberley has over its own watersheds. “We have no control over industrial use or recreational use. It’s getting busier all the time in our watersheds,” he said. “A trail is the least of our worries.”
