In response to concerns about Saanich’s contemplation of suspending the LAP updates, Cameron Scott, Manager of Community Planning at Saanich District’s Planning Department writes:
Dear Cadboro Bay LAP Advisory Committee members,
Given you are actively working on a Local Area Plan update, we wanted to keep you apprised of a relevant discussion at a recent Council meeting.
As you may be aware, Council at their meeting on Monday night discussed future community planning work, including whether to pause the Local Area Plan updates after the completion of the Cadboro Bay and Cordova Bay Local Area Plan updates. The discussion was not concluded and has been referred to the December 16th Committee of the Whole meeting.
Should you want further information on the reports presented on Monday, they are available at the following link: https://www.saanich.ca/EN/main/local-government/mayor-council/schedule-agendas-minutes.html.
Staff are continuing to work on the Cordova Bay and Cadboro Bay Local Area Plan updates, with Draft Plans to be presented for public feedback early next year.
Should you have any further questions, please contact me.
Best Regards,
Cam
