Borrowing approval process for fire hall project

Feb 21, 2024 | 4:15 PM

The City of West Kelowna has launched an alternative approval process to borrow up to $8 million to partially fund the Fire Hall #32 Replacement Project.

Anyone who is opposed to the borrowing has to submit an elector response form between Feb. 20 and March 21, 2024 to the city.

There are several ways to get an elector response form:

=Downloading a form online at westkelownacity.ca/aap
=Picking one up in person at West Kelowna Municipal Hall, 2760 Cameron Road, during regular office hours
=Requesting an electronic form be sent by emailing legislative.services@westkelownacity.ca

Elector response forms must be completed by eligible electors in the City of West Kelowna who are entitled to sign.

If you support long-term borrowing for the Fire Hall #32 Replacement Project, there is nothing you need to do.

If 10 per cent or more of eligible electors submit forms indicating their opposition to the proposal, then elector assent is not obtained and the AAP fails.
