For some time, a property in the 200-block of Nickel Road in Kelowna has been a topic of conversation around town.

On Saturday (Sept. 17), members of the neighbourhood got together for a peaceful protest to come with more ideas of how to handle the house that makes the neighbourhood feel unsafe.

乌鸦传媒淸We want] to bring awareness to the community and to city hall of what is going on and the impact it has taken on our environment where we live here,乌鸦传媒� said Andrew Kuiask. 乌鸦传媒淚乌鸦传媒檓 losing neighbours left, right, and centre because they乌鸦传媒檙e being intimidated, bullied, heckled, harassed and we shouldn乌鸦传媒檛 have to move because of the drugs, the stealing, and whatever else goes on here.乌鸦传媒�

The house has been a subject to many police visits and incidents for more than a year, including an extensive police presence just a couple days ago.

乌鸦传媒淸The police] are pretty much here everyday,乌鸦传媒� said Andrew.

Kuiask told Capital News that people are coming in and out of the house constantly and the person who乌鸦传媒檚 trying to get possession of the house isn乌鸦传媒檛 in the house anymore and hasn乌鸦传媒檛 been seen for a while.

乌鸦传媒淚t乌鸦传媒檚 nonstop,乌鸦传媒� said Andrew. 乌鸦传媒淪omething needs to be done more, that乌鸦传媒檚 why were getting the community together to brainstorm ideas and come up with hopefully some solutions.乌鸦传媒�

The people in the house also have a generator on all throughout the day and night everyday.

Andrew and the rest of the neighbourhood were sitting across the street in protest and made signs. Many cars that drove past honked and rolled their windows down to voice their support of the protest.

On the other side of the street, the people in the house picked up on the protest and cleaned up the front of the house.
