Our next quarter-century The city’s updated Official Community Plan lays out an ambitious vision of the future COLIN SLARK Citizen Staff
City council passed first reading of a bylaw that will amend Prince George’s Official Community Plan at its Monday meeting but held off on approving a public hearing until councillors have a chance to propose changes to it. BC law requires municipalities to have official community plans outlining their long-term goals and how planning and land use rules will be shaped to fulfill them. Prince George’s existing OCP went into effect in 2012. Director of planning and development Deanna Wasnik said that they used to be updated every 10 to 12 years, but municipalities are now required to update them every five years. Work on the plan has been ongoing since December 2022, when council directed city staff to update it.
THANK
YOU PRINCE GEORGE

CITIZEN FILE PHOTO
Prince George has come a long way since this photo of George Street looking south was taken in the 1920s, a century ago. The original city hall is visible in the centre of the photo, in the distance. Now council is mapping out the next quarter-century through an updated Official Community Plan.
