Until September 2024, the City of Victoria is collecting public input on the OCP, a plan that can allow us to improve our zoning, among many, many other things.
I discuss why the survey is constrained, what kind of public input is not valuable, and what kind of input would help the city achieve its goals.
Given the housing and climate crises, I present a few things that need to be implemented in the OCP so we can tackle these issues in the best way possible. I also talk about perimeter blocks, which are an ideal vision for a future development pattern. After talking with CoV staff, it seems like zero side setbacks are a possibility! I strongly encourage you to contact staff and councilors and advocate for this.

I promised to provide links for more information on the housing crisis. The first couple videos in my Housing Shortage Playlist provide an explanation of the issue, and if these are not adequate, the sources they cite should be helpful. In particular, Todd Litman's article contains many resources to help understand the housing shortage: • Housing Shortage series
