The Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen (RDOS) is closing playgrounds and outdoor courts indefinitely.
“Please practice physical distancing at all times,” said RDOS Chair Karla Kozakevich.
All RDOS facilities except landfills, are closed to the public. This includes satellite offices, recreation facilities and programs, and community halls.
Residents are asked not to attend area fire halls. For the health and safety of the public and staff, please conduct your enquiry or business by telephone or email.
Payments for regional district services will be accepted by cheque, or electronically by debit/credit where available. All applications for planning and building permits must be submitted at the front entrance of the RDOS office at 101 Martin Street in Penticton or sent via email. Payments can be dropped off in the after-hours drop box.
All RDOS public and group meetings, and consultations as well as commission meetings (APC, recreation, water) are cancelled indefinitely. RDOS board of director meetings will continue. All delegations and public hearings are suspended. Board meetings will be held electronically.
The Campbell Mountain, Oliver, Okanagan Falls and Keremeos landfills remain open during regular business hours. Customers are asked to bring a credit or debit card for payment. Cash will not be accepted.
