The Squamish-Lillooet Regional District (SLRD) Regional Growth Strategy (RGS) is an initiative of the District of Squamish, Resort Municipality of Whistler, Village of Pemberton, District of Lillooet, and SLRD Electoral Areas B, C and D. The RGS establishes long-term settlement boundaries and supports collaboration across jurisdictions.

The RGS Review is intended to be an update—not an overhaul—of the current RGS.

Some content revisions and additions are proposed, including the development of Food Systems and Climate Change goals,

The main focus is toward implementation of the RGS and developing criteria, guidelines, and processes to support collective agreement and responsibility.

The RGS Review process was initiated in 2016 and is now entering the ‘Adopt’ phase, with a focus on community engagement regarding the draft bylaw, referrals, and the formal bylaw adoption process.

The SLRD – Squamish-Lillooet Regional District is hosting a community open house to share information and seek input on the Regional Growth Strategy (RGS) Review draft bylaw – RGS Amendment Bylaw No. 1562-2018. Come out to learn and share your ideas!
