Central Okanagan taxpayers will contribute $625,000 toward a new urgent and primary care centre in Kelowna.
Conversion of a former bank at the Capri Centre Mall to a care centre is budgeted by Interior Health at just under $2 million.
For health-care capital projects, the provincial government pays 60% of the cost and local taxpayers provide 40%.
The local share of the urgent and primary care centre was to have been $790,000, but some money was left over from recently completed projects.
