West Kelowna香蕉视频直播檚 Bylaw Compliance Officers have been moved to a more central location in an effort to increase public security in the downtown area.

Starting Sept. 4, bylaw began operating out of Westbank Lions Community Centre in the downtown core. Previously, they worked out of West Kelowna Municipal Hall, about a ten-minute drive from downtown West Kelowna.

Before moving into the new space, the city first assisted the Red Cross Health Equipment Loan Program in finding a new location. The Red Cross relocated about four weeks ago and renovations began to convert the spaces into offices.

The decision to move bylaw was reinforced after hearing from residents and businesses during a town hall meeting on June 27.

At the same time, however, we must continue to work with other governments and agencies to establish more supportive services and social housing to help people who are experiencing homelessness.香蕉视频直播�
