New concept designs for the Esplanade Renewal Plan are ready for community review and feedback. These draft concept designs have been refined based on results from feedback from round one combined with the completed technical studies and are now available for review at shapeyourcitypenticton.ca/esplanade.
“We heard from the public through our first round of engagement that the community’s vision for this area over the next 20 plus years is to maintain the natural areas, enhance green spaces, improve access to the beach and KVR trail, and renew existing amenities,” said Steven Collyer, manager of housing policy and initiatives. “Now we are ready to dive deeper into what features the community would like to see and which ones are higher priorities. Your feedback will help refine the draft concept designs, establish a priority and implementation timeline, as well as shape the draft plan.”
Residents are invited to attend an Open House scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 27 at the Yacht Club’s Rusty Anchor restaurant (293 Marina Way) between 2 – 7 p.m. This is a casual, drop-in opportunity for the public to review the updated concept designs, ask staff questions, and share their feedback.
The updated concept designs, technical reports, and feedback forms are available at shapeyourcitypenticton.ca/esplanade. Feedback will be collected through to December 5, 2025. A report on the results of Phase 1 engagement is also available on the website.
