What is the Official Community Plan Bylaw about?
An Official Community Plan is a document that includes objectives and policies to guide decisions on planning and land use management within the the area covered by the plan. The Electoral Area 'H' Official Community Plan Area includes the unincorporated areas commonly known as Deep Bay, Bowser, Qualicum Bay, Dunsmuir, Horne Lake and Spider Lake. The Official Community Plan bylaw includes a main policy document that applies to the entire area, as well as the Bowser Village Centre Plan that only applies to Bowser Village Centre.
Amendment Bylaw 1335.06 replaces the main policy document with a new, revised version and amends the Bowser Village Centre Plan by adding or revising several policies and replacing the Development Permit Area text. Where can I get more information?
