The North Shore Neighbourhood Plan was last updated in 2008. Since then, the North Shore has experienced population growth, demand for new development, and pressure for expanded community and social services.

In 2018, Council adopted a revised Official Community Plan (KAMPLAN), which sets the direction for growth and development for the city, including the North Shore. The review and update of the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan will not only address new changes and land use needs on the North Shore, but also ensure the new plan is aligned with the goals and vision of KAMPLAN.

The updated plan will provide direction to guide planning and land use management for the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan area.

The planning process for the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan consists of three phases:

Phase 1 involves collecting background research, including demographic, employment, transportation, and land use information.

Phase 2 involves the creation of a community vision, identification of key issues, opportunities, and priorities to address in the plan.

Phase 3 consists of developing policy directions, development guidelines, a draft, and a final plan to be completed by the end of 2021.

The process will involve early and ongoing engagement with the public, stakeholders, and Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc. To learn more about the engagement approach, view the North Shore Plan Community Engagement Strategy here.

Upcoming Engagement and Community Survey

The City will be hosting public launch events for the project in September. More details will be provided over the summer. In the meantime, please complete the North Shore Community Survey to share your vision for the North Shore and to tell us what key issues and opportunities the updated plan should address. The survey will be available until September 30.

    July 9, 2020 - The City of Kamloops has begun the review and update of the 2008 North Shore Neighbourhood Plan. The updated plan will provide direction to guide planning and land use management for the areas identified in the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan area. Land use policies within the plan will focus on economic development, community well-being, transportation, infrastructure, urban design, and other topics as identified by the community.

    The process will involve early and ongoing engagement throughout the project with the public, stakeholders, and Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc.

    “The update of the North Shore Neighbourhood Plan is an opportunity to build on recent successes on the North Shore, while addressing residents’ concerns,” said the City’s Community Planning and Sustainability Manager Jason Locke.

    “We’ve seen positive change with new development, new businesses, and now is the opportunity to build on that energy and continue to make the North Shore a great place to live, work, and play,” added Locke.

    The planning and engagement process will extend into next year with plan adoption anticipated by the end of 2021.

    “This builds upon the foundation of the 2008 plan and sets the stage to continue all the exceptional work being undertaken to realize the potential of the North Shore. We encourage the community to actively participate in this planning process and create a vibrant community,” explained North Shore Business Improvement Association Executive Director Jeremy Heighton.

    Public launch events for the project will be held in September, with more details available in the coming weeks.

    In the meantime, please complete the North Shore Community Survey to share your vision for the North Shore and tell us what key issues and opportunities the plan should address. The survey will be available until September 30.
