Re: Re:ecovillage special zone success

Aloha David,

Here's their site:

http://ourecovillage.org/

I visited them earlier this year, in the spring.
Beautiful site, and more importantly beautiful work creating a new 
provincial zoning category - with full support of the relevant 
provincial minister, who hand-delivered the final paperwork himself 
apparently.

cheers,
John S.
