The Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN) is proposing the implementation of Development Cost Charges (DCCs) for community park development in Electoral Areas:
Electoral Area A - Cedar, South Wellington, Yellowpoint, Cassidy Electoral Area B - Gabriola, DeCourcy, Mudge Islands Electoral Area G - French Creek, San Pareil, Little Qualicum Electoral Area H - Bowser, Qualicum Bay, Deep Bay
This consultation is primarily focused on the developers and home builders currently working in these RDN Electoral Areas.
The new Parks DCCs would not be applied to any development outside Electoral Areas A, B, G and H.
DCCs are fees collected from land developers, on a user pay basis, to help fund the cost of the new infrastructure and parks needed to service new development. DCCs help ensure developers pay their fair share of the costs required to develop new infrastructure and park improvements. The RDN has identified park development projects that need to be constructed to support the additional demands generated by new residential development over the next 20 years.

The Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN) is reviewing the possible implementation of Parks Development Cost Charges (DCCs) in Electoral Areas A, B, G and H. The new Parks DCCs would not be applied to any development outside Electoral Areas A, B, G and H.
DCCs are fees collected from land developers, on a user pay basis, to help fund the cost of the new infrastructure and parks needed to service new development.

The RDN has identified park development projects that need to be constructed to support the additional demands generated by new residential development over the next 20 years. The RDN has proposed a revised DCC program with rates to help off-set these costs and would like your feedback.
