City of West Kelowna Development Cost Charges
UDI Okanagan submission to City of West Kelowna
In early 2025, the City of West Kelowna proposed a 2.5% increase in Development Cost Charges (DCCs) for 2025 with an approach of gradual increases for predictability but that would overall still impact housing affordability.

βBalancing infrastructure funding with housing affordability remains a critical priority. Given the ongoing housing affordability challenges across the region, we urge the City to continue seeking a balanced approach that supports infrastructure funding while ensuring new homebuyers and renters are not unduly burdened by escalating costs.β
