Official Community Plan (OCP) Bylaw

Courtenay’s roadmap for growth and community well-being

The Official Community Plan (OCP) is the City’s long-term vision for land use, housing, transportation, parks, infrastructure, climate action, and more. It guides how Courtenay grows while protecting what makes our community special.

Key goals include:

  • Supporting a variety of housing options
  • Encouraging walkable, complete neighbourhoods
  • Strengthening the local economy
  • Protecting the environment and responding to climate change
  • Promoting community health, inclusion, and reconciliation

The OCP reflects input from community members, businesses, K’ómoks First Nation, and other partners. It aligns with provincial legislation and helps inform City decisions, bylaws, and future development.
