Did you know...
  • An estimated 75% of waterfront owners are not full time residents of their waterfront properties and spend an average of only two months in the Shuswap
  • Most waterfront owners therefore are unaware of new developments which affect their properties or laws which are enacted without their knowledge or input
  • Actions taken in their absence may affect their riparian rights, their quality of vacationing life and their property values
  • Over $10 million dollars in property taxes are paid annually by waterfront property owners
 
Our Goal is to...
  • Represent all areas of the Shuswap, Mara and Little Shuswap
  • Be a strong and united voice to ensure that our rights be preserved and respected when dealing with government at all levels
  • Work constructively with government and other local groups to promote our views
  • Communicate monthly with members about important and upcoming issues relevant to Waterfront Owners
  • Provide timely discussions and the ability for all members to voice opinions on topics of interest in order to develop unified positions on issues
