Bannock Point Development and EnhancementFrom 2009 to 2012, during our first four years of operation, we focussed on local job creation, a safer community, and stewardship of our landbase. Over $1,800,000 was brought into the Community of the Slocan Valley and many jobs were created. In 2013 we are focusing on continuing our investment in wildland-urban interface work with a $400,000 investment grant going toward 47 Hectares of Land between the Village of Silverton and the Red Mountain Resident area. We will also begin working with the Village of Slocan on making the village safer focusing on Interface work on the East side of the village.
