For homeowners who wish to protect their properties from possible flooding, City of West Kelowna has made sand and sandbags available at the following locations:
With the wet weather experienced recently and a higher-than-normal snowpack, West Kelowna crews are preparing for flooding. On March 27, the City closed Rotary Trails Park to the public to begin staging supplies at that location and other areas in West Kelowna in an abundance of caution as the community braces for possible flooding.
Private property owners living in flood-prone areas or near waterways are encouraged to consider how to protect their property in case of flooding. Please contact the City’s Planning Department at 778-797-8830 before conducting any work in waterways or sensitive aquatic areas on your property.
