Land Use | qathet Regional District | Powell River, BC

Land Use

The qRD Planning Service prepares land use plans, policies and bylaws for consideration by the qRD Board of Directors. In addition, the professional planners in the department have a number of important responsibilities:

  • Act as a resource for planning and development applications
  • Respond to inquiries and applications related to the use and development of land
  • Administer land use bylaws and policies
  • Provide opportunities for public engagement
  • Oversee planning initiatives within four electoral areas, including Texada and Savary Islands.

The Planning Service is funded by taxpayers within Electoral Areas A, B, C, and D (Texada Island). The City of Powell River and Tla’amin Nation have their own planning departments, and Electoral Area E (Lasqueti Island) receives planning services from the Islands Trust.

 

For all planning-related inquiries, please call 604-485-2260 or email planning@qathet.ca to speak with Planning staff or to schedule an appointment.
