The purpose of the Drainage Master Plan is to identify the infrastructure upgrades needed to meet the expected demands for a population of 250,000 over the next 25 years, as well as land use changes as outlined in the updated OCP. The Plan will guide the City’s long-term drainage capital program which prioritizes required infrastructure upgrades, including associated costs and timing. It will also review the adequacy of the existing stormwater management policy, criteria, and bylaws to ensure they continue to meet the growing needs of the community.
What’s Happening Next:
Throughout 2026 and 2027, the City will be gathering feedback to inform updates to its existing Master Plans. This work will ensure that long-term planning aligns with the priorities outlined in the updated OCP, Council’s Strategic Plan and community input, creating a cohesive and consistent roadmap for Abbotsford toward 2050.
