Officials in British Columbia’s Central Okanagan say people whose homes were destroyed by the wildfire in and around West Kelowna are being contacted to schedule escorted bus visits to assess the damage.
A statement from the regional emergency operations centre says only people whose properties are completely destroyed or damaged to the point they’re uninhabitable will be invited to participate at this time.
It says the process is aimed at ensuring people who have lost their homes “have the privacy, time and space to be the first to see their properties.”
It says the bus visits are being offered before officials lift any
