The current Westbank Centre Revitalization Plan was adopted in 2011 and has guided growth, investment, and improvements in the area over the past 15 years. This update will build on this work to:

• align with updated policy, including the Official Community Plan and Zoning Bylaw
• reflect current best practices and market conditions
• address transportation and mobility challenges
•  reinforce the Urban Centre as West Kelowna’s downtown

Since the 2011 plan, the City has made significant investments to support West Kelowna’s downtown and lay the groundwork for a more vibrant urban centre.

• Civic hub: City Hall now anchors the urban centre
• Parks and public spaces: Upgrades to Memorial Park, Springer Park, and other sites have added amenities, gathering spaces, and trail connections
• Transportation: A transit exchange, rapid bus service, and some sidewalk improvements have strengthened mobility
• Planning framework: Completion of the Parking Strategy and adoption of the Official Community Plan and other strategies to align future growth
• Public realm: Some wayfinding and streetscape improvements have enhanced the look and function of the area

These investments have created an emerging foundation for the next phase, focusing on new development, improved connections, and a more active, walkable downtown.
