KELOWNA, B.C. — The federal government has announced it is investing up to $22.4 million in the YLW Economic Enabling Infrastructure Project in Kelowna through the direct delivery stream of the Build Communities Strong Fund.

“This project involves the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ of new utility infrastructure at the Kelowna International Airport (YLW) to remove servicing barriers that currently limit development of the East Lands and establish the infrastructure needed to support future economic growth in Kelowna and the Okanagan,â€� states a release.

Construction work includes new water, sanitary sewer, stormwater, electrical and communications infrastructure to service more than 165 acres of airside airport employment and industrial lands.

The initial phase will service approximately 90 acres of development-ready land. Utility connections and infrastructure capacity will be established to support future aerospace, aviation, logistics, advanced manufacturing, technology and training facilities.

YLW is Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­â€™s largest municipally owned and operated airport.
