ѻýThe City of Kelowna was recently served with a Notice of Civil Claim filed by 350 Doyle Avenue Holdings Ltd. and Centurion Appelt (350 Doyle Avenue) Limited Partnership alleging the City did not act appropriately when the development permits for the project at 350 Doyle Avenue were rescinded on August 14, 2023,ѻý the statement reads.

ѻýNone of 350 Doyle Avenue Holdingsѻý allegations have been proven in court.ѻý

The statement adds the city is confident that the legal proceedings will demonstrate that mayor and council followed due process and acted in the best interest of the city.

The city has 21 days to file its response.

In a separate petition proceeding, 350 Doyle Avenue Holdings is seeking to set aside the Aug. 14, 2023, resolution of council.

The city has previously set out its position in its filed response to the petition that it had the authority to rescind the permits, the statement says.

ѻýAs these matters are before the courts, we will not be commenting further on the specifics of the case. We trust that the court will examine the facts and the law and reach a fair and reasonable conclusion. We thank the public for their patience and understanding as we let the process unfold.ѻý
