Official Community Plan

The Town of View Royal is updating its Official Community Plan (OCP)!

Through the View Royal 2050 process, the Town is reviewing and updating its OCP to guide growth and development over the next 20+ years. The OCP is a key document that shapes decisions on land use, housing, transportation, parks, and more.

We want to hear from you! Stay informed and get involved by visiting engage.viewroyal.ca/view-royal-2050 for updates, engagement opportunities, and ways to share your input.

The Local Government Act defines an Official Community Plan as "a statement of objectives and policies to guide decisions on planning and land use management, within the area covered by the plan, respecting the purposes of local government". For a community, the OCP broadly sets out the range of acceptable land uses and densities from residential to industrial to parks. The OCP also includes objectives and policies for a wide range of community interests including:

  • Sustainability

  • Transportation and mobility
  • Housing

  • Energy conservation and climate change
