Mixed-use project to follow 20-month North Shore access hub lease: developer
KAMLOOPS — Subject to city council’s approval of a temporary use permit, the former Butler Auto and RV lot along the Tranquille Road corridor could eventually be the site of an access hub facility for the city’s unhoused residents. But it wouldn’t be a permanent location, as the owner of the property wants to have the site redeveloped for new apartments and business space.
ARPA Investments is planning to temporarily lease the recently purchased Butler Auto and RV lot at 142 Tranquille Road for the access hub. In recent years, the development company has been involved in building several new apartments on the city’s North Shore.
That is part of why ARPA partner Joshua Knaak wants to make sure the shelter facility is run in a way that isn’t detrimental to businesses and homes in the area.
