A mobile home park proposal - near the intersection of Highway 37 and Krumm Road in Thorn- _ hill has failed to receive any sup- - | port from the board of directors Sof the Regional District of ... Kitimat-Stikine. The proposal, _ . submitted by Roger Sheppard of ’ .8.C.&C.

Board director Les ‘Wat- mough gaid the motion not to support the concept was made with ‘‘regret’’ because the board would like to see this kind of development in Thornhill.
