Okanagan Lake Flood Levels 2022 2020 2017 & 2018

Sandbags available for RDCO electoral area residents 

Central Okanagan West electoral area property owners may pick up sandbags at:

Property owners are responsible for having an emergency plan and the tools and equipment needed to protect their properties.  As well, in these areas they are responsible for providing their own sand and filling the bags.

Sand and bags have been available since March for North Westside residents to proactively protect their properties in an area with increased overland flooding risk after last year’s White Rock Lake wildfire. Self-serve sand and sandbag stations are available at two North Westside fire halls:

  • Killiney Beach main hall Station 101 – 514 Udell Road
  • Westside Road Station 102 – 7355N Westside Road North

Residents are responsible for filling sandbags to use in protecting their property.  The supply will be replenished as needed.

Property owners in the Central Okanagan West electoral area are encouraged to check ditches and driveway access culverts to ensure proper runoff. If you have any concerns, please contact AIMRoads 1-866-222-4204.
