Though the vessels themselves are of great interest for their own sake, some emphasis has been placed on the role they played in the social and economic development of the area in which they served.

  • The Gibbons Family
    August-01-11 11:38 AM The Gibbons Family Genealogy and Life In the Okanagan by Katie Gibbons Lake Country Heritage and Cultural Society Challenge Project 2005 The Gibbons Family Page 1 August-01-11 11:38 AM Acknowledgments and Explanations This essay is about the Gibbons family members. It was to be a genealogy report, taken from the beginnings of a family tree. But, as the family tree grew larger and larger, the direction in the essay changed a bit. The first part of the essay is my knowledge on the family tree. Then there are my notations on some family members of whom I received information. The second part of the report was done to pertain to Lake Country and it‟s history. It is the story of who came to the Okanagan, where they worked, where they lived, what they did for enjoyment, and their children. Hopefully (because most people will not be interested in the Gibbons specifically), this will give you a general idea of what life was like in the Okanagan beginning in the l920s, through the eyes of my family‟s men, women, and children. I imagine many of the people in Lake Country have a similar history to tell. I will continue to add to the family tree, but for now this is what I have discovered through the interviews and documents of my family. In thanks for helping me with this essay, I would like to acknowledge the following: Richard Gibbons (Uncle Rich), thank you for the childhood stories, they were thoroughly enjoyable and very useful.

  • A Look Into the Past’
    REGIONAL DISTRICT of CENTRAL OKANAGAN ‘A Look Into the Past’ A Historical Review 1967 – 2006 by A.T. Harrison ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In preparing this review, the author used excerpts from various publications and also received input from several Regional District staff. Appreciation is expressed and recognition is given to the following: UBCM News Regional District Concept – 1968 Regional Districts in British Columbia – 1971 South East Kelowna Irrigation District Newsletter George Fenton, photo assistance Joe Rich Community Association Regional District Staff who provided information for this review: Ken Arcuri, Planning Gary Leier, Human Resources Hillary Hettinga, Engineering Harold Reay, Finance Kelly Roth, Inspection Services Bill Vos, Parks and Recreation Facilities Colleen Bond, Economic Development Jody Foster-Sexsmith, Parks and Recreation Facilities Eve Wegscheidler, Parks and Recreation Facilities Editing assistance provided by Carole Gordon. A special thanks to Dorothy Weavers, who for many years served the Regional Board and the Administrator as Administrative Assistant and without whose help this historical review would not have been possible. FOREWARD The Regional District of Central Okanagan (RDCO) commissioned this work to record in one volume the history of its growth and development as a service provider organization, dating back to the Provincial Government legislation and incorporation. In writing and performing this work, I had to consider the format, order and content, and whether there should be some chronological form with respect to the growth and development of the Regional District. While I carried out substantial research, I also relied upon memories of activities that occurred over a period of time. The problem with memories is that they can be challenged by a person who remembers the same activity in a different way.

  • News Release
    NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release Ministry of Transportation 2003TRAN0063-000931 Oct. 28, 2003 NEW BRIDGE FULFILS PREMIER'S COMMITMENT TO KELOWNA KELOWNA – The province has issued a request for expressions of interest to build a new five-lane Okanagan Lake Bridge, Transportation Minister Judith Reid announced today. “Residents of Kelowna and the Okanagan have been waiting over a decade for a new bridge,” Reid said. “Previous governments repeatedly promised to build a new bridge. Premier Campbell pledged in his state of the province address in February that our government would deliver, and today we are moving forward.” “We’ve met with a number of stakeholders including the City of Kelowna, the Downtown Business Association and the chambers of commerce for Kelowna, Westbank and Peachland,” said Kelowna Mission MLA Sindi Hawkins. “We all agree that a new bridge will have a positive impact on jobs, on tourism, and most importantly, on safety.” The Okanagan Lake Bridge, located on Highway 97 in Kelowna, is the most congested stretch of highway outside the Lower Mainland. After 45 years of use, Kelowna has outgrown the bridge, and repairs are no longer an option. It is estimated that within eight years, 52,000 cars will use the bridge daily. The project is expected to cost approximately $100 million. In addition, two interchanges valued at approximately $20 million will be built on the west side of the bridge. The ministry is now seeking a partner to design, build, finance and operate the bridge, with no user tolls. “A new five-lane, toll-free bridge will relieve congestion on the highway and make the route safer and more efficient for my constituents,” said Okanagan-Westside MLA Rick Thorpe.

    Central Okanagan Transportation and Mobility 20 year Options September 2002 Stakeholder Feedback Central Okanagan Transportation and Mobility 20 Year Options Report of Stakeholder Feedback Received by Regional Transportation Committee November 21, 2002 Prepared by Central Okanagan Regional District Regional Growth Strategy Coordinator INTRODUCTION: The Central Okanagan Regional Growth Strategy involves communities and provincial agencies working together to plan for transportation investments in support of growth and development. The Okanagan Valley Transportation Planning process of the 1990’s provided detailed analysis of highway corridor options and financial implications but few agreements were reached on funding or on priorities. Through the Central Okanagan Regional Transportation Committee, efforts are being made to develop a regional vision for transportation investments, and to consult with community stakeholders on the options and opportunities that face the region. In June 2002, the Regional District, in partnership with the provincial Ministry of Transportation, circulated a Discussion Paper, Transportation and Mobility in the Central Okanagan; 20 Year Options – An Evolving Discussion, and presented a draft vision to business and community associations, municipal councils and first nation officials. The purpose of this report is to summarize input received in this first stage of consultation. In the following sections, key messages are presented from the varied perspectives following consultation with business and economic

  • NEWS RELEASE for Immediate Release Office of the Premier 2008OTP0141-000810 Ministry of Transportation May 25, 2008
    NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release Office of the Premier 2008OTP0141-000810 Ministry of Transportation May 25, 2008 PREMIER AND BENNETT OPEN WILLIAM R. BENNETT BRIDGE KELOWNA – On July 19, 1958, crowds gathered to witness the official opening of a new bridge spanning Okanagan Lake, built to serve as a critical transportation link in the Okanagan. When it opened, the Okanagan Lake Bridge was one of only three floating concrete bridges in the world, and the first of its kind in Canada. Almost 50 years after Princess Margaret and Premier W.A.C. Bennett cut the ribbon and opened that bridge, Premier Gordon Campbell and former premier William (Bill) R. Bennett used the same scissors to cut the ribbon and officially open the new William R. Bennett Bridge. Premier Campbell and Mr. Bennett were joined in today's official opening by Minister of Transportation Kevin Falcon, Kelowna Mayor Sharon Shepherd, Westside Mayor Rosalind Neis, Westbank First Nation Chief Robert Louie and MLAs Sindi Hawkins, Rick Thorpe and Al Horning. “I am honoured to join former Premier Bennett to open this bridge – which is named to acknowledge his contributions to our province – 50 years after his father opened the original bridge,” said Premier Campbell. “This new five-lane bridge, built as an innovative public-private partnership, was completed 108 days ahead of schedule and includes an elevated span for marine traffic as well as a lane for cyclists and pedestrians. It will be a key transportation link between Kelowna and Westbank, and will improve safety, stimulate economic growth and reduce congestion in this busy corridor.” “This is a historic day for the people of the Okanagan and all British Columbians and I’m honoured to have my name attached to such a great project,” said Mr.

  • Central Okanagan Lake Foreshore Plan
    CENTRAL OKANAGAN LAKE FORESHORE PLAN UPDATE November 19, 2007 PREPARED BY Development Services Department Regional District of the Central Okanagan EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Central Okanagan Lake Foreshore Plan outlines the objectives and policies laid out by the local community and water resource agencies for the management, development, and use of Okanagan Lake shoreline within the Regional District of Central Okanagan. Foreshore plans are necessary in rapidly growing or heavily used areas abutting British Columbia’s waterways, lakes, and seashores. The adoption of foreshore plans provides for integration of development policies from multiple levels of government holding jurisdiction over different aspects of the foreshore. The Central Okanagan is one of the most rapidly growing areas in Western Canada, and much of the growth is occurring near the shores of Okanagan Lake. The Regional District of Central Okanagan has been involved in foreshore planning since the late 1980s and is a pioneer in the task of foreshore management. In this document, the Regional District sets out a Foreshore Plan that is reflective of community interests and is supported by the government agencies involved. The management policies of this Plan were originally developed by the Regional District of Central Okanagan in June 1990. The updated plan is intended to serve as a companion to the 2005 Central Okanagan Lake Foreshore Inventory. Support for this Plan was affirmed by the Regional Board of Directors on November 19, 2007, and subsequent development proposals will be evaluated in accord with the Foreshore Plan policies. Due to rapid population growth and increasing demands on the lake, it is clearly necessary to implement the Foreshore Plan in order to protect provincial water quality objectives for Okanagan Lake.
