The qathet Regional District has launched the Savary Island Community Plan project. One of the first steps is to hear from the community. Please complete this survey by October 31st.
The Savary Island Community Plan will build on previous plans, reports and studies and include a comprehensive community engagement process. The Community Plan is a long-term plan for how Savary Island will evolve over the next 25 years. The Community Plan will be developed by working with the community to address the issues, identify and celebrate the opportunities, while maintaining Savary Island’s unique community character.
What is a Community Plan? A Community Plan (also referred to as an Official Community Plan) sets out a vision, goals and overarching policies guiding land use and development in the area covered by the plan. The Regional Board, staff, and property owners use the OCP to guide decisions on where to locate new development and where to provide regional and electoral area services.
Why are we doing this project? The current Community Plan was completed in 2007 so it’s close to 20 years old! And, the Province has issued new legislation that needs to be included in an updated plan.
