Neighbours of a future permanent injection site in downtown Kelowna disappointed that Interior Health didn’t advise them of its plans
Description
January 29, 2021
Many argue it is needed in Kelowna---a permanent drug injection site. And now work is underway to get one up and running in the downtown core. Up until now--there's been a mobile unit where those with addictions could go and use safely but a permanent r facility is expected to open this year. And while even those with concerns see some benefits of having a permanent site, those who work and own businesses in the area are disappointed they had to learn through the media about the Interior Health Authority's plans.
