Is the CVRD required to accept and consider an application for an Official Community Plan or Zoning Bylaw amendment for the purpose of seeking approval to develop an LNG facility at Bamberton?
The Local Government Act (section 460) requires that local government consider every application for an Official Community Plan or Zoning Bylaw amendment. Accordingly, local government has no authority to simply refuse to accept a complete development application. Through legislation, every person is afforded the prospect of a fair and impartial application process.
