Community Survey

The Regional District of Nanaimo is updating the Electoral Area F Official Community Plan (OCP) and your input is needed! This survey asks community members what they value about their community, and about today’s challenges and opportunities. Area F includes the communities of Coombs, Hilliers, Errington, Meadowood and Whiskey Creek and the surrounding rural areas.

The current OCP was adopted in 1999 after a community engagement process that took place over 20 years ago. This survey is one of the first steps in the OCP Update to understand how the community has changed or stayed the same, and where the OCP can be updated to be more relevant to today’s community.

An OCP is a long-term plan for a community. It guides land use by describing a community’s vision for the future and includes objectives and policies to help achieve that vision.

Join the conversation!

The first section of this survey asks for your views about the current OCP Community Values and where additional values may be needed to reflect today’s community. 

The second part of the survey asks about challenges you see or are experiencing, and opportunities for the OCP to address these challenges.

The questions are organized into six topic areas to help focus the community discussion. Background information for each topic area can be found in OCP Snapshots. The project website also includes a link to the current OCP and other project information.
