The City of Chilliwack is continuing to update our Official Community Plan (OCP)!

This plan, called Chilliwack 2050, will guide how the city will grow and develop over the next 25 years. Through a phased process of planning research and community engagement, the updated plan will reflect a renewed vision for Chilliwack's future.

Thank you to everyone who filled out the online questionnaire or dropped by an open house during Phase 3! We are working to refine the plan based on your feedback, and will introduce the refined OCP to City Council late October.

Stay tuned for information about the public hearing in December.

    In total, we had:

    • Over 325 completed questionnaires.
    • Over 270 online ideas with over 1,200 votes, plus 180+ ideas at our pop-ups.
    • Over 850 map pins of places people love, wish to see grow, want to keep the same, and wish to improve.

    Over the next month, the project team will consider the feedback received to identify common themes and prepare an engagement summary. This information, along with background research, will be analyzed to create concepts for Phase 2, which will be shared with the community in late spring of 2025 for further input and conversation.

    Additional online engagement, community pop-ups, and other exciting events for Phase 2 will be announced later in the year. Stay tuned!
