Specific areas of Gibsons have been designated as Development Permit Areas. Each of these areas has specific development guidelines which specify the Town’s development objectives for that area. The guidelines for each Development Permit Area are outlined in Section 14.0 of the Official Community Plan (OCP).

A Development Permit for a proposed project is approved and issued by Council when they are satisfied that the project meets all guidelines and conditions for the Development Permit Area. Once approved, the conditions of the Development Permit are binding on existing and future owners of the property.

Development Permits are registered at the Land Titles Office and appear on the title of the property.

A Development Permit is not a Building Permit and you still need to apply for a Building Permit after the Development Permit has been issued.
