Official Community Plan

The Official Community Plan (OCP) is a long-range (20-year) guide for the municipality that helps Council in making decisions on matters such as land use and growth, transportation, agricultural preservation, economic development, and housing.  The OCP works together with the Regional Growth Strategy (RGS), administered by Metro Vancouver, the regional government body, and must be consistent with the RGS.

Overall, reviewing and updating the OCP is a six-phase process that is taking place over several years. For more information, please see the Detailed OCP Update Timeline.
