The Project—Marking 50 years by Building for the Future
After years of discussion, growing demand has made it clear: Kaslo Community Services (KCS) needs more space to continue meeting the needs of our community.
For this project to move forward, we will need both a zoning change and an amendment to the Official Community Plan (OCP). Local residents will have opportunity for comment, including a public hearing.
