Pre-Consultation Process
The RVCA and our member municipalities encourage pre-consultation in advance of submitting a formal Planning Act application. At a pre-consultation meeting, the applicant, the approval authority and the review agencies will discuss the proposal and the reports that may be necessary to support the application. The pre-consultation process assists the applicant in preparing a proposal that will meet the policies and submission requirements of the municipality, the RVCA and other agencies, potentially saving time and money.
Types of Applications
The applications reviewed by the RVCA include:
- plans of subdivision and condominium
- severances
- minor variances
- comprehensive zoning by-laws and zoning by-law amendments
- official plans and official plan amendments
- site plans
- lifting of reserves
The RVCA also participates on technical advisory committees that oversee the preparation of broader planning studies such as community design plans, master servicing studies, environmental management plans and environmental assessments. We also review applications and provide advice on applications that are submitted under the Aggregate Resources Act.
