The Osoyoos Indian Band and the Town of Osoyoos are working on a boundary adjustment agreement that will transfer roughly 16 hectares of land near 45th Street into the reserve.
The agreement stems from a settlement made between the band and the Canadian government in the late 1990s regarding the John Carmichael Haynes land claim in the area 150 years ago.

If you live in the Osoyoos area, it’s soon going to be a lot more expensive to have your septic tank pumped.
“We do 1,000 septic tanks a year,” said John Mills, owner of Osoyoos’s Darlorn Septic Service.
Right now, it costs about $360 to have your septic tank pumped out and hauled away.
That’s already a jump from the 2008 rate.
