Meetings of the Committee of the Whole and the Peace River Regional District Board will be held beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, July 23, 2026 at the Dawson Creek office located at 1981 Alaska Avenue in Dawson Creek, BC.
The PRRD will accept gallery questions and comments from the public at the meeting. Gallery comments are limited to items on the agenda, and each person has up to two minutes to share their views or pose questions for the Board’s consideration.
This is a public notice required by the Local Government Act.
The Regional Board will consider amending the Board Procedure Bylaw at the Regular Board Meeting on July 23, 2026.
Proposed Change
The amendment proposes restricting virtual attendance at Board meetings to illness or unsafe travel due to weather, replacing the broader use of electronic participation that has been allowed since COVID‑19 and returning to pre‑pandemic norms.
The amendment also proposes adding an updated elected officials’ oath of office to the Procedure Bylaw. The oath of office previously was approved by separate bylaw.
The Regional Board has approved the 2026 Peace River Regional District Board and Committee Meeting schedule. The Regional District holds one to two Board meetings each month, held on Thursdays starting at 10am (MST) unless otherwise noted.
The Peace River Regional District (PRRD) is accepting applications from interested residents wishing to serve on the PRRD Board of Variance. The Regional Board will be appointing three members for a three-year term, ending in 2026.
Until further notice, and at the resolution of the Regional Board, the Peace River Regional District will consider, but is likely to reject or defer any application for Development Variance Permits, Temporary Use Permits, Official Community Plan (OCP) Bylaw Amendments and Zoning Bylaw Amendments for lands within the Old Fort Geohazard Study Area.
