Clark Builders to Build Glenmore Protective Services Campus to Strengthen Public Safety

The campus will strengthen emergency response times and support the growing Kelowna community.

Clark Builders, a division of Turner Construction Company, celebrated the groundbreaking of the Glenmore Protective Services Campus in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. As part of an investment in public safety and resilience, the Glenmore Protective Services Campus will serve as a shared site for the Kelowna Fire Department’s Glenmore Fire Station No. 5 and Central Okanagan Search and Rescue. The project is being delivered through an Integrated Project Delivery model.

The new Glenmore Fire Station No. 5 will strengthen response times and support a growing community with modern, purpose-built facilities, ensuring long-term value for the City of Kelowna and the broader Central Okanagan Region.

The campus integrates advanced alerting systems and training facilities to enable live-fire and rescue scenarios. Its strategic location near a growing residential area, the University of British Columbia Okanagan, and the Kelowna International Airport enhances coverage and operational efficiency.

“This One Protective Service Campus represents an important step forward for community safety in Kelowna,” said Scott Benoit, Director, Project Development, Clark Builders. “With dedicated facilities for both fire and rescue services, the campus will strengthen emergency response, enhance regional coordination, and deliver long-term value for the city and the entire Central Okanagan Region.”
