The purpose of these objectives, policies, and designations is to provide direction for land use and development that are consistent with the community values of the electoral area. The policies of the plan are meant to balance the demands placed on the land base in order to ensure an equitable, comprehensive, and logical distribution of land uses. Policies are often implemented on a long-term basis, generally over a 10 to 15 year period. The OCP provides a basis for the following actions: a) The adoption or amendment of land use regulations, such as the zoning bylaw; b) The direction of public and private investment; c) The guidance of elected officials, and others having statutory approval authority, in the evaluation of proposals, referrals, and amendment of bylaws; and, d) Bringing the SLRD into compliance with provincial regulations, such as the Riparian Area Regulation and the greenhouse gas management requirements of the Local Government Act. The Electoral Area B OCP updates and consolidates three previously written OCPs, and provides new policy direction for the electoral area as a whole. The following OCPs are consolidated into the Electoral Area B OCP: 1. Pavilion Lake (originally written in 2002), 2. Seton Portage (originally written in 2004), and, 3. Duffey Lake Corridor (originally written in 1992). Six communities are addressed in the Electoral Area B OCP. These six communities are Seton Portage- Shalalth, Yalakom Valley, Bridge River/West Pavilion, Texas Creek, Fountain, and Pavilion Lake. Policies are provided to address community planning, economic development, cultural heritage, biodiversity, natural hazards, utilities, transportation, and land use. Policy direction is also provided for the Duffey Lake Corridor. This OCP also has three sub-area plans for the following communities: 1. Pavilion Lake, 2. Seton Portage, and, 3. Yalakom Valley. PLANNING PROCESS The development of the Electoral Area B OCP was initiated in 2007. Invitations for early participation in the review process were sent to adjacent local governments, First Nations, School District #74, and provincial agencies. Consultation and discussions with the District of Lillooet, the St'át'imc Nation, the Ministry of Transportation, Ministry of Forests and Range, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Environment, Ministry of 4 Tourism, Sport and the Arts, the Integrated Land Management Bureau, the Agricultural Land Commission, BC Parks, and School District #74 occurred throughout the development of the OCP. A series of public open houses and meetings were held in Lillooet and the Yalakom Valley during the course of the plan review. Following first reading of the bylaw, a public hearing was held to provide an opportunity for formal comment on the plan in bylaw form. AMENDING THE PLAN An OCP is not intended to be a static document. Rather, it is intended to be adaptable to new trends within society and responsive to changing
