That procedure reeked to high heaven as the interests of bums were served and those of Kelowna citizens ignored. "2. A declaration that the Respondent conducted the public hearing process in a manner contrary to the principles of procedural fairness and contrary to the requirements of the Local Government Act;" Mountains of technical information, critical to making a proper decision vis-a-vis flood zone planning, was only included at the 11th hour and wasn't attached. There was no opportunity to review that material by counsellors, some of whom had already been bought. NO rationale for the outrageous steal/land swap was ever offered by bureaucrats. How one justifies Kelowna taxpayers swapping useless land for industrial meant for their bus depot for 1/20th of its value wasn't touched.

The most obvious omission was land valuations for the swap. It is inherently impossible to make a proper decision where valuations are unknown and undisclosed. The deal is so bad it appears those numbers were withheld on purpose. See ----->Land Exchange Agreement - Denciti

"The City's entire process for the Kelowna Spring file raises serious questions about integrity, openness and legality of the process and decision. There needs to be a judicial review of this City Council decision. The approval was unreasonable, unfair, and violated public safety, environmental concerns and regulations, the primary responsibility of the city."
