At their meeting on December 9th, Council endorsed the North Bluff Road Corridor Study & OCP Review Report and directed staff to prepare and post a Request for Proposals based on the project scope. 

On June 12, 2023, Council directed staff to prepare a project scope report for the North Bluff Corridor Study. Since that time, new provincial legislation has come into effect that requires the City to update the OCP before December 31, 2024. The report proposes a combined North Bluff Corridor Study & OCP Review (Provincial updates) 2025 project scope and process, that will allow both the Corridor Study and the mandated OCP review work to be completed by the end of 2025. This approach also structures the entire project into processes that are ‘independent but concurrent’ to the Corridor Study, with an anticipated completion date of early December 2025. 

Additional information can be found in the  full report by City staff and appendix A –  proposed expansion study area.
