Official Community Plan Review

About the Official Community Plan (OCP) review

The District of North Saanich is re-engaging with District residents on their vision for the future of North Saanich through our Official Community Plan.

We want to hear from you! The District of North Saanich is reconnecting with residents to gather input on their vision for the future of our community through the Official Community Plan.

Outlined below are our principles for engaging with District residents:

RESPONSIVENESS
District Staff commit to being accessible to residents one-on-one, and through a range of engagement activities ranging from open houses to pop-ups in the community.

CLARITY

District Staff commit to drafting policies with a clear link to the problem to be solved, the benefit to be had, and the connection of any policy to community input or Council direction.

District Staff commit to an efficient process that values the time of residents and recognizes the contributions made during earlier phases of the OCP review.

Timeline

Topic Areas for Community Engagement

District Staff are organizing engagement activities around six key topic areas to guide our discussions with residents and ensure a streamlined process for drafting the Official Community Plan. Some engagement events combine topic areas where there are direct parallels and overlap.
