With the deadline right around the corner, a Kelowna group vows to inform as many residents as possible about the city91裸聊视频檚 plan to borrow $241.2 million for recreation projects.

Concerned Kelowna Residents for Financial Accountability (CKRFA) have issues with the Alternate Approval Process (AAP) to gain residents91裸聊视频� approval to borrow the money.

91裸聊视频淭he AAP to me is the wrong tool to get public feedback because it91裸聊视频檚 a negative vote,91裸聊视频� said Susan Ames, CKRFA.

It would take 10 per cent (12,160) of residents to say no for the AAP to fail.

If approved it would be the largest amount the city has ever borrowed to fund a project, as well as the largest capital project Kelowna has ever seen.

The $241 million would be spent on redeveloping the Parkinson Recreation Centre (PRC) site.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 kind of like the Taj Mahal of rec centres,91裸聊视频� Ames said. 91裸聊视频淒o we need that opulence, no.91裸聊视频�

Also, $36 million has been earmarked for the Glenmore and Mission activity centres, $4.5 million for Rutland Recreation Park and $5 million for partnerships with UBC Okanagan and Okanagan College.

The total cost comes to $287.5 million.

Ames added she doesn91裸聊视频檛 think most residents know that 84 per cent of that amount will be spent just on the PRC.

91裸聊视频淩utland is getting 1.5 per cent of the funding, Glenmore and Mission are getting six per cent each, and 2.5 per cent for UBC Okanagan and Okanagan College.91裸聊视频�

Ames also took issue with the city holding the AAP during the summer months.

The provincial government91裸聊视频檚 AAP guide states:

91裸聊视频淭he decision to hold an AAP when many electors are absent during the summer months or other holiday season could result in an artificially low response rate that falls well short of the required 10 per cent threshold.91裸聊视频�

However, in July council approved a timeline that was two weeks longer than required by the province (Sep.15). At that same meeting councillors Ron Cannan and Gord Lovegrove suggested the deadline be set for Oct. 15.

That deadline was extended to Oct. 13 due to the Grouse Complex wildfires.

Ames said her group wants the city to hold a referendum on borrowing the money, as the City of Vernon did last year.

In November, residents approved borrowing $121 million to build a recreation facility.

The District of Summerland is going to a referendum this Nov., asking residents there if they want to spend $50 million on a new pool.

Ames said CKRFA will be in Kettle Valley this Saturday (Oct. 7) letting people know about the AAP.

The group will be at Thalia Street and Providence Avenue from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
