Currently, there is no bylaw in Lake Country regulating temporary farm worker housing.
香蕉视频直播淲e just want to make sure that it香蕉视频直播檚 safe. We understand that they香蕉视频直播檙e going to have tents and tent villages but we want to make sure that it香蕉视频直播檚 going to fit in with the neighbours and everyone else,香蕉视频直播 he said.
The bylaw will benefit both the neighbours and the farmers, said Ireland.
