… What’s the Difference?
To put it simply, the RDNO is responsible for maintaining services for property owners. This includes zoning and land use, building permits, water, sewer, road maintenance, bylaw enforcement and noise complaints.
The SSPOA is a home owners association, representing the best interests of the property owners of Silver Star Mountain to any and all organizations and committees having an influence or effect on the operation, development or governance of the community.
SilverStar Mountain Resort is responsible for the ski lifts and terrain. The resort also has the right to purchase Crown land from the province to expand resort operations further, including housing developments and other services.
Destination Silver Star is a not-for-profit organization that markets and promotes Silver Star to raise the community’s profile as a tourist destination. It is membership based, meaning every property or business owner is a compulsory member of the association and is subject to dues.
We acknowledge that Destination Silver Star conducts business on the unceded, ancestral, and traditional First Nations territory and does so with the utmost of respect for the elders that cared for it before our time. We endeavour to keep learning about the rich and diverse cultures of #IndigenousBC, encouraging that work with our members and guests.
