West Kelowna Fire Rescue offers emergency response, fire prevention, and rescue services to the West Kelowna and Westbank First Nation regions. Originally built in 1971, the facility operated as a volunteer hall was due for an upgrade to accomodate growth within the community.
Construction includes demolition to the existing community centre to make way for a new multi-purpose fire hall and recreation centre. Once complete, the fire hall will combine emergency response services and community amenities like indoor and outdoor public washrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, adaptable training rooms, space for the tennis club, a hockey rink, and a recreation area.
The 16,640 sq. ft. fire hall features precast concrete walls, both inside and out, ensuring outstanding durability and longevity. The facility also includes a hose tower designed for practical training, equipped for conducting repelling drills down its face.
We are using the design-build delivery method, which encourages close collaboration between the design and construction teams.
