Then the account states in 20:33 that these high places were not removed. I'm aware of a number of possible explanations, such as:- 1Ch 17 occurs at the beginning of Jehoshaphat's reign and 1Ch 20 is at the end; therefore, they were probably rebuilt in the interim period. - that these were speaking of different geographical locations (
