Well here is an update on the logging situation on the Atlas Road. We were told at our Tuesday Jan 6 2009 council meeting that Spray Lakes is meeting with SRD the week of Jan 12. At this point we are led to believe that they do not have approval to log on the Atlas Road.
We also had presented to us the road use agreement which would allow Spray Lakes to use the portion of the Atlas road that is controlled by the municipality. This road use agreement was passed by a vote of 4-3, with councilors Cole, Salus and Ward opposed.
Personally I had a whole different opinion about logging in our area when there was a mill here employing a large group of Crowsnest Pass residents. Now these folks from Cochrane are going to impact the natural beauty of our area for what? I sincerely hope that SRD if they allow this logging, they force them to do a far better job than they did up the Kananaskis road
