WHY DO WE HAVE A COMMUNITY PLAN?
The Community Plan is necessary to guide
the Village of Radium Hot Springs towards
its desired future. A vision for a Village that
is authentic, connected, full-time, beautiful,
walkable and inclusive. A vision that lives the
theme Our Better Nature. This Community Plan
is the map to guide the Village towards that
future.
The Community Plan is the top long-term
planning document for the Village and is
adopted through a Bylaw process, making it
legally binding. The Community Plan not only
guides decisions of Council and administration,
but also determines where developments on
private land (e.g. housing and businesses) may
be located.
The Village is legally required to adopt
an Of昀椀cial Community Plan (OCP) and for
simplicity it is being called just the Community
Plan.
The Community Plan can be viewed as an
agreement between the government of Radium
Hot Springs and its people on how and where
the Village will grow, develop, invest, and
spend tax dollars.
