At the March 29 Powell River Regional District regular board of directors meeting, responsibility for regional trails, and land and water recreation, was approved.
The board moved that Powell River Recreation Users Group Trails Society (ORUG), an umbrella organization representing interests of most, if not all, local outdoor recreation associations and users, be given a $10,000 grant-in-aid.
A service agreement was also recommended, under which ORUG would be responsible for a sustainable, multi-use network of trails and recreational amenities within the regional district.
The agreement continues in perpetuity.
