Council directed staff to complete the concept designs for an update to the Kiwanis Pier Park and walkway, working in conjunction with CTQ Consultants, a Kelowna engineering, planning and design firm.
Both of CTQ’s preliminary concepts include a plaza area, shelters and concrete stairs down to the water. The first design includes a viewing tower built at the end of the pier and wind sculptures, while the second design leaves the pier untouched but adds docking and a public art/viewing platform.
Director of Operation Mitch Moroziuk said they are also taking into account entrepreneur Andy Schwab’s long-delayed plans to establish a new home for the Fintry Queen next to the walking pier.
