There are other Boards made up of appointments from the Regional District Board that oversee the operations of a variety of interests.

Regional Hospital District

Comprised of the same members as the Regional District Board, they are responsible for decisions and funding of capital expenditures for the hospital. The Regional Hospital District funds a 40% share of hospital facility construction and funding for the purchase of major equipment. Hospital District meetings are held just prior to the regular meeting of the Regional Board, as necessary.  For more information on the Interior Health Authority you can visit their website at  www.interiorhealth.ca

Sterile Insect Release Program (SIR)

The SIR program is a partnership of four regional districts providing a service directed at area wide management of codling moth infestation in both orchard and urban areas.  The service promotes sustainable agricultural practices while protecting air, water and food quality through delivery of area wide enforcement and sterile insect release resulting in a reduction in the need for toxic organophosphate pesticides.  The Regional District of Central Okanagan has appointed representation on the Sterile Insect Release program Board.
