Lot Characteristics
The Village of Lumby’s industrial park includes five rectangular lots ranging from 2.15 to 4.82 acres that are generally level. Servicing, access, and environmental readiness make these lots highly marketable at the right price.
The lots are serviced by natural gas and BC hydro electricity and will be tied into municipal water, sewer and runoff systems. BC Hydro has designated the subdivision for 3-phase, 347/600V power.

It is strongly advised to consult with a tax professional or the municipal authority for clarification on specific transactions.
The lots vary in size and permit a wide variety of uses. Lots 7 & 8 are adjacent to Bessette Creek which has a Riparian setback that must be considered.
The lots can be further developed with slab-on-grade building construction and the creation of storage/outdoor yards.
Each lot has approximately 90 feet of frontage on a newly paved cul-de-sac road named Industrial Way.
Rare I2 General Industrial Zoning
The zoning has a wide variety of general I2 and light I1 industrial uses including manufacturing, processing, warehousing, storage, retail sales of heavy equipment and machinery, and accommodation for one dwelling unit for the owner, operator or employee of the primary business.

Larger operators could buy multiple lots and not require lot consolidation if buildings didn’t cross the lot lines. Investor-developers could further subdivide or build large leasable warehouse spaces or stratified bay units for sale.
Development Permits
The construction of new buildings or additions to existing buildings on the new lots will require Development Permits including:
- Industrial Development Permit – Form and Character of Industrial Development
- Environmentally Sensitive Areas Development Permit – for any development adjacent to a riparian area (30 m)
- Hazardous Condition Areas Development Permit – a Floodplain Development Permit would not be required to new development, provide the development complied with the provision of the floodplain covenant.
Purchasers should view all title clauses and development requirements.
Situated in the North Okanagan, Lumby provides access to resources, a skilled workforce, post-secondary institutions, affordable housing, and high quality of life.
Village of Lumby Public Works
The Village of Lumby’s new Public Works slab-on-grade building is located in the Lumby Industrial Park.
