What's New in Lakeview Heights
Kalamoir Park Safe
Kalamoir Park is a local gem. It is designated as a Regional District Conservation Park. There are not many parks that have this important designation.
The RDCO proposed a major upgrade to the infrastructure of Kalamoir Park which threatened the very nature of our conservation park. Thankfully due to successful lobbying from the Friends of Kalamoir the Casa Loma Neighbourhood Association and our own Lakeview Heights Community Association the upgrade was considerably improved. Many thanks to Mayor Gord Milsom and Councillor Stephen Johnston for their support.

Objections to the rezoning of
911 Anders Road
The Board of the Lakeview Heights Community Association made a strong representation against the rezoning of 911 Anders Road from R1 to CD (zoning amendment bylaw 0320.01).
The reasons for our desire to block this amendment are as follows:
-
The City of West Kelowna Advisory Planning Commission voted against this zoning amendment
-
Zone CD has very few restrictions on the size or type of development
-
Our very poor parks infrastructure does not support additional densification
-
The lot is surrounded by R1 lots
-
Six stories is too high for this location and will adversely affect the whole community
-
The lot is too narrow and small in area to support a high-quality mixed-use development
Due to our concerns the CWK has changed the zoning and frontage requirements for this property and similar properties along Anders Road. Although there may be some issues with future development proposals, the situation has improved considerably. ​

What's New in Lakeview Heights
New Fire Hall
The CWK has the walls in place and is expecting the new fire hall to be operational in the fall of 2025 on the Anders Park property. We certainly need a new firehall but but we are very disappointed to be loosing the one centrally located playing field in Lakeview Heights. More info>
