Covers the area northwest of the city boundary to Desolation Sound, and includes the Malaspina Peninsula, the community of Lund, and Savary and Hernando Islands, and excludes Tla’amin Nation lands.

Official Community Plan

Official Community Plan bylaws set out a long-term vision for a community and establish community goals, objectives and policies for achieving that vision. An Official Community Plan bylaw provides a policy framework to guide land use and development decision making of the regional district, other government agencies, businesses and land owners.

“Our vision is a vibrant and diverse community that preserves and enhances its rural, coastal character and balances economic opportunity with the environment.”
