		<description><![CDATA[The National Park debate is heating up very quickly. And an excellent debate it is. People whom you would think would be horrified at the prospect of Bowen becoming a tourist destination are in favour of the idea and business people who would prosper with the growth are lamenting the potential destruction of our lifestyle.

		<description><![CDATA[This could be one of those personality tests “which position most closely matches yours?”
Position #1) Snug Cove is an embarrassment. It should be upgraded to look like the entrance to a prosperous community.
Position #2) Snug Cove is great. In a world where every small town feels the need to make itself over into a model [...]]]></description>

The new project is supposed to be the “Snug Cove Village Implementation Plan” (SCVIP). It’s not only one [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our OCP Update Committee has released a draft of our new Official Community Plan and in most respects I think that it captures our collective aspirations quite well. The committee working on the Plan spent a lot of time consulting with community groups about what should be included in the update and they included a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If Bowen Island was a business we would be having some pretty serious meetings right now. The business climate is changing and we’re stuck with too much inventory. In last week’s real estate paper there were over 70 houses listed for sale. If you’re interested in a building lot, you have over 40 to choose [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Separating issues from distractions is sometimes necessary, particularly when dealing with Bowen politics. This week I’m trying to sort out a few of them.
The C.N.I.B. lodge is for sale for $4,200,000. For those of you who have never turned right when coming off the ferry, the lodge is basically a great rustic dining hall with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last Monday night Municipal Council considered a proposal, prepared by staff, which outlined how we could provide the $712,000 that our municipality will have to invest in the Snug Cove sewer upgrade. Of course council didn’t approve it. They deferred their decision until after more community consultation. But this time the good old deferral trick [...]]]></description>

 In the spring of 2008 fourteen islanders, selected by Council, sat around tables in Municipal Hall and began to answer this question. They came from a variety of backgrounds, with expertise in climate change solutions, social justice, green buildings, affordability, waste reduction and ecosystem protection – approaches [...]]]></description>
