Having witnessed the tax and spend methods of the COP, I no longer trust any further funding requests. The waste of taxpayers money is disgusting. I would prefer to have some money spent on outside auditors coming in to find the waste and the pay-offs that have been going on for years. You have literally destroyed small business and families as well as made the downtown area a pit of destruction and filth while you pad your pockets at the taxpayers expense. Your should all be thrown in jail for what you have done to this beautiful city. I built a brand new home with the intent of retiring there, but hell no. Not with what I have watched transpire over the past few years.

Ban VACATION RENTAL / AIR B&B developments! There are too many in Penticton contributing to the extreme shortage of homes. Removing one family from a home, building 4 units in its place that are sold to investors for Air B&Bs! As taxpayers, we should not be forced to contribute to these developments so out of town investors can hoard homes and profit!
