Development Permit (DP) Application
The DP Application process is the next major milestone in the Minato Bay development journey during which significant detail is added to the project.
The overarching guide is the Official Community Plan ('OCP') for Ucluelet, which takes a 30-year look-ahead view. The details & specifics of the process are guided by the DoU's DP Application process, guidelines & various checklists.
Some key areas laid out by the DoU include consideration being given to:
--> Form & Character: "...guide the development of a pedestrian-oriented, compact and vibrant town which maintains its coastal village character and does the following: protect important public views, create buildings at a scale which is comfortable and inviting to pedestrians, reflect and adapt to the climate and coastal weather, and acknowledge the heritage of Ucluelet." (District of Ucluelet.ca)
--> Environmental: "...guide development to ensure that the most sensitive environmental features of a site are protected and ecological functions are not needlessly disturbed by development activities." (District of Ucluelet.ca)
