North Shore BIA concerned about ‘fixed’ locations of mobile injection sites
KAMLOOPS — After Kamloops City Council unanimously endorsed the concept of two mobile injection sites on Tuesday, the North Shore Business Improvement Association is concerned about the mobile site being in two fixed locations on either side of the river.
One of the sites will be at ASK Wellness on Tranquille Road, the other at the Crossroads Inn on Seymour Street, an ASK Wellness-run facility.
The North Shore BIA, which found last year that 77% of businesses were against a supervised injection site, has been more receptive to a mobile site. But it still doesn’t feel it’s very mobile.
