Fort Langley, BC: Neighbourhood Guide

Neighbourhood guide · Township of Langley

Living in Fort Langley

Fort Langley is a village on the Fraser River, with shops, restaurants, museums and trails, and the Hudson’s Bay Company fort that is now a national historic site. The village core is a heritage conservation area, so the rules for a property matter as much as the house.

Planning and zoning

Heritage and planning in Fort Langley

Fort Langley’s heritage rules shape what owners can change, so check them before you buy.

  • The Fort Langley Community Plan was adopted in 1987 and made the downtown a heritage alteration permit area.
  • The downtown became a heritage conservation area in 1997.
  • Changes in a heritage conservation area generally need a Heritage Alteration Permit.
  • The Township’s OCP update includes draft directions for a community plan covering Aldergrove, Fort Langley, Murrayville, Northwest Langley and Walnut Grove.

See the Township’s community and neighbourhood plans, its heritage protection page, and my Langley zoning guide.

Before you buy in Fort Langley

  1. Check heritage rules. Ask whether the property is in the heritage conservation area and what needs a permit.
  2. Check flood status. Ask the Township whether the lot is in an unprotected floodplain area.
  3. Confirm the zoning. Ask the Township what the property is zoned and what that allows.
  4. Confirm the school catchment. Use the SD35 School Locator for the exact address.
  5. For a strata home, read the documents. Depreciation report, minutes, bylaws and fees.
  6. Think about traffic and parking. The village is busy with visitors, so check parking and street traffic near the home.
