Projects & Initiatives

The Strathcona Regional District (SRD) is involved in a wide range of projects and initiatives that support strong, sustainable, and connected communities across the region. We provide clear and accessible information to keep residents informed about current work and future plans.

Public input helps inform planning and decision-making, ensuring community priorities and local knowledge are reflected in policies, programs, and services.

Many projects are led through land use and parks planning, guiding long-term growth and development. This includes the development and updating of key policy documents such as Official Community Plans, Zoning Bylaws, and Parks Plans.
