Spring 2024 Engagement Recap and Next Steps

Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who attended our community events regarding the District of Oak Bay’s Infill Housing Program Bylaw Updates. We heard from many corners of the community and appreciate every piece of feedback provided throughout the process.

Over 500 members of the community joined us for a webinar, open houses and a Special Committee of the Whole Meeting with Oak Bay Council. Feedback collected at these engagement events will be included in an engagement summary presented to Oak Bay Council.

Upcoming Meetings

The following meetings are open to the public and include:

• May 16 – Special Committee of the Whole: Follow-up Special Committee of the Whole to continue Council discussion from the May 6 meeting.
• June 3 – Special Council Meeting: Presenting the draft Zoning Bylaw to meet provincial requirements for Council consideration with a recommendation for First and Second Reading.
• June 24 – Regular Council Meeting: Council consideration of the Zoning Bylaw changes for Third Reading and Adoption.

As the District of Oak Bay continues to implement the Housing Action Program, there will be many opportunities to provide your input on Council Priority Projects related to housing.
