The SLRD received a development application for a proposed campground on a 7.27 hectare parcel of land adjacent to the existing Porteau Cove Provincial Park. Existing site uses include aggregate extraction and undistributed forested slopes. The application proposes 50 tent camp sites, 39 RV camp sites, and 1740m2 of amenity/commercial including 8 one-bedroom staff accommodations.

The current Rural Resource 3 (RR3) zoning and Resource Management OCP designation does not provide for the provide for campground use, thus the need for a Zoning and OCP amendment application. The Zoning and OCP Amendment Applications are being processed concurrently.

Current Status

The Amendment Bylaws recieved first reading at the September 27, 2023 SLRD Board meeting. The 30-day referral process is now underway.
