The Goat香蕉视频直播檚 Peak development in West Kelowna is back on the table before council.
Since 2013 the project has been considered by West Kelowna council. In 2017 a comprehensive development plan (CDP) was formed and adopted, and most recently, the landowners of Goats Peak Lot A/South Half holdings, through agent Brad Clifton, proposed the City rezone a portion of the property to accommodate housing.
Staff香蕉视频直播檚 report to council, which will be presented during a regular council meeting on Dec. 8 at 1:30 p.m., puts the project in a positive light.
The lot sizes, 161 acres and 68 acres, are currently zoned Rural Resource Zone, and Rural Residential Large Parcel Zone. Owners are proposing they be changed to Single Family Residential, Duplex Residential, Low Density Multiple Family and Parks and Open Space zoning.
The lots in question, within Block C, are just a small portion of the total lands in the Goat香蕉视频直播檚 Peak holdings area.
In layman香蕉视频直播檚 terms, the landowners are hoping to build about 245 units of single family detached homes, duplex香蕉视频直播檚, and low-density multiple family housing, as well as parks, within a portion of their land. The Goat香蕉视频直播檚 Peak Comprehensive Development Plan area consists of four separate lots located adjacent to Gellatly Road, near the Glenrosa interchange. It is a large area above the northwest shore of Okanagan Lake, at the Southern boundary of the City of West Kelowna.
Developers hope to eventually develop the entire area into approx. 933 residential units, surrounded by parks and natural areas.

In the City香蕉视频直播檚 technical review of the project (page 8), staff noted several important upgrades and modifications regarding water servicing, transportation, and more, that will be required.

Staff are recommending council give the proposed zoning amendment first and second reading. Should the application receive first and second reading, a public hearing will be scheduled. Alternatively, council has the option to postpone first and second reading.
