Council has been provided with the information, correspondence, petitions or reports that have been received concerning the subject bylaws. This information is available to the public online at Kelowna.ca/council or by request to the Office of the City Clerk.

For those participating this evening, or who have already submitted letters to Council, a reminder that this Hearing and the Meeting is open to the public and all representations to Council form part of the public record. A live audio-video feed is being broadcast and recorded on kelowna.ca.
