The troops are rallying on both sides of West Kelowna’s Blackmun Bay Village battle as a public hearing date for the major development draws near.

Calgary’s Landstar Development Corporation invited members of the business community to Two Eagles Golf Course on Monday night for an information session about its massive Campbell Road project, which is slated to feature 260 apartments, 40 townhomes, a 100-room hotel and a 241-slip marina.

Members of the Casa Loma neighbourhood, which is located at the end of Campbell Road and would be affected by the six-year building process and then the development’s presence after that, responded Tuesday morning by launching a petition encouraging all West Kelowna residents to rally against Blackmun Bay Village.
