Fernie starting OCP process

The City of Fernie is kicking off its new official community plan engagement process with an open house next week.

The city is working on a new housing needs report and OCP.

“Upon confirmation of the draft we will begin to identify ways to enable the recommendations of the housing needs report in the interim OCP amendments that you’ll see this December,” said project manager Kristen Harder.

The new OCP will guide the city’s decision making in the future, with the last plan approved in 2014.

The first round of public engagement starts on Sept. 10.

An open house will take place from 5-7 p.m. at the Arts Station Theatre.

An public survey will also run from Sept. 10-24.
