A 3,500-home Vernon development now includes stronger environmental protections, affordable housing, and infrastructure funded by the developer.
A revised 3,500-home development on Vernon’s Commonage Road now includes stronger environmental safeguards, with two-thirds of the 421-hectare site preserved— including sensitive ESA-1 areas—and 120 hectares set aside as parkland.
The updated plan, submitted by Kerkhoff Develop-Build after public consultation, features 40% affordable homes, a consolidated layout away from ecologically sensitive zones, and new roads connecting Apollo, Bench, and Okanagan Landing roads.
The developer will fund millions in water, sewer, and infrastructure upgrades at no taxpayer cost.
The proposal is under review by city staff ahead of a decision by Vernon Council.
