As a West Kelowna resident familiar with this development, I ''can'' say this has generated a '''lot''' of press coverage locally in the Kelowna Daily Courier, Black Press|Kelowna Capital News, and local born-digital news publications like Castanet.net and INFOnews.ca. It's gone through a bankruptcy, which the Aquilini Investment Group took over, so there was coverage about that. But, I'm not quite sure ''what'' our requirement is for real estate buildings and developments. It has helped to reshape and densify/gentrify the South Pandosy neighbourhood of Kelowna, but that was already taking place—this just sort of served as a "catalyst" to ''accelerate'' that process. Is that ''enough''? I'm not sure. Ping me with specific policy sections to re-consider my !vote. I would '''disagree''' that Castanet.net is '''not''' a reliable source; in small- and mid-sized cities, we are woefully out of touch with reality if are only considering TV, radio, and print news sources as notionally "reliable." Perhaps we need a rethink on  with respect to said cities. FWIW, Kamloops lost its daily newspaper a few years ago, and the Kelowna Daily Courier hasn't released circulation statistics since 2014. It's widely believed to have fallen to as little as 1,000-2,500 subscribers (perhaps less) in a region with 200,000+ people. It has denied rumours of a closure, even when they listed their editorial and print office property for sale and redevelopment, which seems to be on hold, presumably, due to a downturn in the local real estate market. Nonetheless, my reasonable speculation has them closing at or before 2023
