Policy P4 Overnight Camping in Regional Parks

Policy No.  P-4

Central Coast Regional District



Policy: Overnight Camping in Regional Parks

Preamble: Due to unauthorized camping in Bella Coola's Regional Parks, and
due to the fact that Bella Coola has existing designated camping
sites at various locations in the valley, and due to excess of
garbage and unauthorized fires left by campers at non-designated
sites, it is deemed necessary to establish a policy to prohibit
overnight camping in local Bella Coola parks that do not have
designated sites for the accommodation of the traveling public,
whether it be in tents, campers, or travel trailers.


Policy: That Walker Island Park, the Beaver Pond site and the Bella
Coola Arena site located in the Bella Coola Valley, although
designated Public and Assembly District, prohibit overnight
camping in tents, campers or travel trailers.  These locations
do not have designated sites for the accommodation of the
traveling public.

Violators will be reported to the Bella Coola R.C.M.P.
Detachment.
