Residents living downstream of Silverstar Mountain have expressed concern about effluent spraying at a water shed at the top of the resort. Rick Fairbairn, Regional District director for Electoral area 'D" says the company contracted by the resort does have permission to do so. "There has been a permit issued to do that and I think the staff is trying to determine what's involved with the permit and the ramifications..." The report will be presented at next weeks NORD Meeting.

Rumours of construction of a golf course at Silverstar Mountain are not true says the Resort's VP of Sales and Marketing. Michael J Ballingall says right now their focus is on building a world class ski and snowboard resort. "Right now the only plans we have for a golf course are on paper. In our Master plan there is an area set aside for a golf course." Ballingall says, the North Okanagan Regional District has already approved the Official community plan for Silverstar but there would be a public consultation process if they were to begin building a golf course.
