At its meeting on August 13, 2026, the PRRD Board of Directors voted to abandon Regional Zoning Bylaw No. 2582, 2025. The Board also approved seeking an extension from the Minister of Housing and Municipal Affairs to allow the PRRD to update its existing zoning bylaws to achieve compliance with provincial housing legislation.

"The decision to discontinue a unified Regional Zoning Bylaw does not diminish the tremendous amount of work that went into this initiative," says Board Chair Sperling. "Over the past year, staff, directors, committee members and residents invested significant time and effort reviewing regulations, sharing perspectives and helping shape the discussion around land use and housing in our region. That work has provided valuable insights that will continue to support the PRRD as we move forward with updating our existing zoning bylaws."

This is a public notice required by the Local Government Act.
