The city of Kelowna may be growing in size 香蕉视频直播� slightly.

City council has approved a plan to bring a small parcel of land it owns just east of the Kelowna International Airport into its boundary. Currently, the city owns the land but it lies just outside the city香蕉视频直播檚 boundry, in the Regional District of the Central Okanagan.

The reason the city wants the land included within its boundary is because the 2045 master plan for the airport predicts the property will be needed for future airport expansion.

In order to have the land included, the city will have to get the regional district to agree and the province to approve the move.

The land sits on the east side of the airport香蕉视频直播檚 runway, between the runway and Old Vernon Road. A report that went to council Monday said part of land could, one day, be used for a second runway at the airport.

The property is describd in the staff report as being made up of the East Lands, the Polo Fields (south of the East Lands and north of Bulman Road) and a 香蕉视频直播渉omestead,香蕉视频直播� a house located just off Old Vernon Road. The house is currently occupied.

Staff told council Monday the land the house sits on would remain in the regional district.

Council approved the plan to move foward with the requests to the RDCO and the province.
