OFFICIAL COMMUNITY PLAN REVIEW

Ladysmith Unparalleled 2049. Our Vision. Our Plan.

Town of Ladysmith is updating its Official Community Plan (OCP) to help manage growth and change in a way that helps our community meet its goals.

An OCP is a policy document that influences how people experience their town. This includes how we live, gather, work, learn, recreate, shop, and move around the community.  At its heart, an OCP is about managing land use and physical growth of the town.
