Displaced residents of Kelowna's ill-fated social housing building Hadgraft Wilson Place are being offered financial compensation to help them with their plight.
It's been idle this month, but some activity has resumed at the construction site of UBC Okanagan's downtown Kelowna campus. The construction of what will be a university tower is being blamed for structural damage at nearby buildings, including one that displaced more than 80 people with physical and mental challenges. Klaudia Van Emmerik has an update – Apr 11, 2024Displaced residents of Kelowna, B.C.
Residents of the building have, for the most part, been staying at the new residence building at Okanagan College. When September rolls around, however, they will again be displaced and that’s a concern both Daley and Cormack share. “City staff will continue to work with the team involved in stabilizing and assessing HWP to get people home as soon as possible. This support will provide needed relief for residents while further work takes place.”Winnipeg family opts to drive home from California after WestJet flight grounded
