Three such applications in re=
Spect of properties in Central

referred by council to the Capital

Region Planning Commission for |

review and recommendations. It~
is understood that they have now
been processed, and that the

zoning committee of council will

consider the recommendations
before bringing them te council,

The need for commercial tour-

ist camps is- recognized in a
lengthy -report on the subject
recently.campiled by. the: Capital.
Region Planning Board, following

a call last year by the provincial

“minister of recreation and con-

servation for this type of tran-
sient.accommodation in the area,

In the Peninsula area suitable
sites for. private trailer camps
were. indicated (1) on East Saan-
ich (Tsawout) Indian Reserve;
(2) South-west of Brentwood Bay,
in well wooded territory at the
head of Tod Inlet, and between
ihe north end.of Prospect Lake
and West Saanich Road.

The report recognizes the ex-

“istence of “provinégial camping:

grounds, but mentions that. the _
new forms of camping require.

“more sophisticated services than

those
parks.
‘eThe department,

‘therefore,

wishing to retain: the primitive

nature of the camp grounds, is
encouraging private interests to-
develop: more urban type camp-
ing facilities for the trailer and
truck campers,’’ states ‘the re-

port.

hicles made by..B.C. Ferry.

In. the same week of 1967,
customs statistics show that 453
trailers (excluding truck-camp-
ers) of all origins entered through
the ports of Victoria and Sidney.
A comparison of these figures
with the number of existing camp-
ing spaces indicates a deficiency —
of between. 100 and. 150 spaces,
according to the report.
