On April 24, 2023, Council gave first and second readings to the McKee Neighbourhood Plan and scheduled a public hearing for June 12, 2023. The public hearing details are as follows:

When: Monday, June 12, 2023

Time: 6:00 pm

Where: Matsqui Centennial Auditorium, Abbotsford City Hall, 32315 South Fraser Way, Abbotsford, BC

On March 27, 2023, Council directed staff to consider the feedback received in relation to the McKee Neighbourhood Plan, and whether any updates to the plan were warranted as a result of the feedback received.

Based on the feedback received, updates are proposed to the McKee Neighbourhood Plan, which would result in an additional 65 acres (26 hectares) of land being designated for Open Space, that could be used to protect wildlife and Species at Risk and provide greater connectivity in the future trail network. These updates would not affect unconstrained areas planned for future development.

For a complete summary of the proposed updates, and to review the McKee Neighbourhood Plan, see the following:

Previous Public Hearing Feedback: All submissions received in relation to the March 6, 2023 public hearing will be compiled and incorporated in any future public hearing record. Accordingly, it will not be necessary to re-attend to repeat previously shared submissions or to re-send previous written representations, though any person whose interests are affected is welcome to participate either by watching the hearing and deliberations online, attending in person, or by providing written or verbal submissions.

How Can I Provide Input: Those who believe their interest in property is affected by the proposed bylaw can submit feedback electronically to the City Clerk at cityclerk@abbotsford.ca, by mail to: City Clerk, City of Abbotsford, 32315 South Fraser Way, Abbotsford, BC V2T 1W7, or delivered in person to City Hall 5th floor at the above address. Feedback may also be provided during the public hearing. In order for feedback to be considered by Council before the meeting, it should be received by 12 noon on June 12, 2023. Please note that all submissions are a matter of public record, and will be recorded in the meeting minutes.



The City of Abbotsford is creating a plan for the new McKee Neighbourhood, a mountainside area known for its open space and trails.

The four stage planning process will develop a vision for a new residential neighbourhood anchored by a neighbourhood centre, and connected with trails, parks and open spaces. The Mckee Neighbourhood Plan presents an opportunity to combine homes, schools, parks, trails and environmental amenities into a neighbourhood that meets residents’ daily needs close to home.
