Citywide Official Community Plan
The
Citywide Official Community Plan (CWOCP) is a comprehensive plan
that guides the overall future of the City and provides a broad
framework for managing future change.
The CWOCP is at the top of
the City's hierarchy of land use plans. Plans included in the CWOCP are
Area Plans and Neighbourhood Plans. If there is a policy conflict
between the CWOCP and an Area Plan, the Area Plan policies will take
precedence over the Citywide policies.
From time to time, Council
will consider amendments to the CWOCP Bylaw which may result in changes
to this document. Users of this document will need to assume
responsibility for making the necessary inquiries regarding these
changes. Further information can be obtained from the City of Coquitlam
Planning and Development Department 604-927-3400.
