Official Community Plans Bylaw 1050
An Official
Community Plan (OCP) is a bylaw that consists of a series of
policies that provide a framework for making land use decisions.
These policies are based upon the communities vision and objectives,
and form a guide for future growth and land development. The
Regional Board, Regional District staff, the community, and
developers use Official Community Plans in evaluating applications,
reviewing proposed changes in land use, and undertaking projects.
All development must conform to the relevant policies of the
Official Community Plan.

The Regional Board meets every two
weeks, managing the wide range of issues
that arise as part of local governance.
The 11 member Board represents the two
electoral areas of the Regional District
(Westside and Central Okanagan East,
formerly Ellison/Joe Rich) and the
member municipalities of Kelowna,
Peachland and Lake Country. Every three
years, three Directors are elected to
represent the Westside Electoral Area
and one is elected to represent the
residents of the Central Okanagan East
Electoral Area. The City of Kelowna
appoints five representatives to the
Regional Board from among its elected
Council members. The District of Lake
Country and the District of Peachland
each appoint one of their Council
members to the Regional Board.

Residents -
FYI - Road Name Confusion
According to
Lynda Lochhead - District Development Technician with MoT
It is
Trepanier Road not Trepanier Bench Road.
Upton Road ends at the Peachland municipal boundary.
It is Paradise Valley Drive not
Paradise Valley Road.
Is it MacKinnon
or McKinnon Road??? |
