Foreshore Expansion Approved!

The Cultus Lake Park Board is pleased to announce that the Province of British Columbia has approved the expansion of our Nominal Tenure foreshore area.
This expansion adds new waterfront space under Park Board management and supports improved safety, environmental stewardship, and community access.
What This Means
• The expanded foreshore area will now be incorporated into Park Board oversight.
• All existing public access to waterfront pathways and docks remains unchanged.
• The Board will review and update the Foreshore Bylaw to include the new area.
Next Steps
• Over the coming months, Park staff will gather information on foreshore users (such as buoys, docks, and boat lifts) in the expanded area.
• A revised Foreshore Bylaw will be developed to ensure:
• Safe navigation and reduced congestion.
• Compliance with provincial environmental standards.
• Effective stewardship and transparent management of moorage and buoy placement.
Community Engagement
Residents and visitors will have opportunities to provide input during the bylaw review process.

November 3, 2025 – Cultus Lake Park Board Village Center Planning Development Committee Meeting Notice

October 28, 2025
Message from the Chair

Update on the Village Centre Request for Proposal (RFP)

As Chair of the Cultus Lake Park Board and the Village Centre Planning & Development Committee, on behalf of the Board, I’m pleased to share an update regarding the Village Centre RFP.

Background
After much consideration and public consultation; beginning in the late 2000’s with the work done by the Future Planning Advisory Committee toward the formation of Plan Cultus, Cultus Lake Park Plan Bylaw No. 1080, 2016; adding the work completed by the Village Centre Planning and Development Committee and Board over the last 5 years, including additional public consultation, and in consultation with Urban Systems (Community planning and development consultants), a Request for Proposal was issued.

RFP Issuance & Timeline

RFP issued: April 29, 2025 (via BC Bid and the Park website).
Closing: September 30, 2025, at 4:30 p.m.
Decision window: The Board must make a decision whether to award the RFP by December 15, 2025.

Status
The Board received one submission.
The Board has requested the Village Centre Planning & Development Committee review the submission and provide comments and next-step recommendations before any Board response or decision to award.

What “Awarding the RFP” Means
Awarding the current RFP does not approve the final project exactly as submitted. However, it would award the proponent the ability to enter into official negotiations with the Board regarding the details of their submission and the development of the Village Centre. From there, any final agreement would be subject to Board approval, applicable bylaws, policies, and required approvals.

Our Commitment
We remain committed to a transparent, accountable process. We will continue to share key updates and details on any future engagement opportunities as they become available.

On behalf of the Board, thank you for your ongoing interest and participation.
