RDNO to Remove Two Homes at 7581 Baker Hogg Road for Planned Reservoir
What's Happening
The Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) has issued a public notice regarding the future of two residential structures located at 7581 Baker Hogg Road. The district has announced its intention to either donate or demolish the homes, with no financial compensation expected from any potential recipient.
The move is in line with RDNO’s broader infrastructure plans, as the property was acquired solely to construct a new water reservoir. The homes are no longer deemed necessary for the district's use and will be removed to make way for future water system development.
Responses to the notice will be part of the public record. Anyone interested or seeking more details is encouraged to contact RDNO via email at utilities@rdno.ca.
Why a Reservoir Is Being Built
The planned reservoir at Baker Hogg Road is one of several projects under the RDNO’s ongoing efforts to enhance the Greater Vernon Water system. With growing demand and climate considerations, water infrastructure improvements are a top priority for the region.
The new reservoir is expected to support long-term water supply and storage needs in the North Okanagan, especially in areas like B.X. and near Swan Lake. The project reflects a regional strategy to secure reliable water access while removing redundant or obstructive infrastructure from key development sites.
