That will include uses on the beach and in the lake, landscaping, parking, a traffic study along with strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and challenges.

Council also approved a stakeholder engagement strategy to gather input and ideas from the community.

“The district will be issuing an open call for formal written submissions that include recommendations on improvements to Kalamalka Beach and the Head of the Lake neighbourhood, to be submitted prior to September 15, 2023,” a news release from the district stated.

A media release with more information will be issued in the coming days.

Council also agreed to hold at least two open houses on the Head of the Lake Plan, one pre-design and one post design for the public’s review.

More information will be released as the plan unfolds.
