Kelowna Official Community Plan Review
Back to projects page
The City hired Holland Barrs (now HB Lanarc) to lead a thoughtful review of their official community plan, to ensure the 'hardwiring of sustainability' into land use and transportation patterns. Extensive public and stakeholder engagement was a key aspect of project design, with over 2600 people taking part directly and extensive public awareness more broadly. This was twinned with intensive review of existing policy and updating thereof to reflect sustainability, working closely with city staff and council.
