Maintenance Funding for BC Parks

WHEREAS many provincial parks are utilized by the public year-round despite being maintained during peak summer months only, resulting in environmental concerns related to unmaintained toilets, waste disposal and unaddressed vandalism; AND WHEREAS insufficient resources are dedicated to ensure required maintenance is undertaken outside of the peak summer months: THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Ministry of Environment be requested to direct additional funding toward the year-round maintenance of BC Parks sites.
