I am very concerned that the blanket housing regulations related to single family homes (Bill 44) will have a major impact on the Abbott Street and Marshall Street Heritage Conservation Areas (HCAs). In this era of rapid expansion, it holds significant meaning to reflect on the lost legacy of Chinatown and not have the same thing happen to Kelowna’s heritage conservation areas.
