The City of Kelowna says phase-two construction at Glenmore’s newest park is about to begin.
According to the city, the second phase at Glenmore Recreation Park will be finished by September.
The first phase involved site preparation. When phase two is done, the upgrades completed will be two multi-use playing fields, irrigation and drainage.
“Building out a park of this size is a significant undertaking,” says project manager Andrew Gibbs. “So we’re starting with addressing the basic needs first.”
Gibbs adds “though this phase of construction will see completion of the sports fields in fall 2019, they will not likely be available for use until fall 2020.”
The city says the 11.5 acre area could eventually be home to a playground, walking trails, a dog park, multi-use playing fields, sport courts and a community garden.
