Planning, zoning and flood

Planning and flood notes for West Chilliwack

Plans, zoning and flood rules can be different for each lot.

  • The Agricultural Area Plan was prepared in 2012 and adopted as Schedule D3 of the 2040 Official Community Plan. It is now Schedule B1 of the 2050 plan.
  • The 2040 Official Community Plan, Bylaw No. 4025, was adopted in 2014. Official Community Plan Bylaw 2025, No. 5500 (Chilliwack 2050) was adopted on December 16, 2025.
  • ALR: whether a parcel is in the ALR is set address by address. I did not read an Agricultural Land Commission statement specific to West Chilliwack.
  • Flood: the City’s Floodplain Regulation Bylaw 4519 designates the floodplains of the Fraser, Chilliwack and Vedder rivers and the Vedder Canal, plus the alluvial fans and floodplains of several creeks. Minimum building setbacks are 60 m from the Fraser River, 75 m from the Vedder River and 30 m from the Chilliwack River and Vedder Canal.
  • The City maintains an extensive diking network for the Fraser and Vedder River systems.

My Chilliwack zoning guide covers agricultural and rural zones only. For a home on a city lot, send me the address and I’ll look up the zone.

Before you buy in West Chilliwack

  1. Check the ALR first. Look up the exact parcel on the Agricultural Land Commission map before you plan anything beyond the home.
  2. Check the flood rules and setbacks. Ask the City how the floodplain bylaw and its river setbacks apply to the exact parcel.
  3. Ask what farm uses are nearby. Dairy, poultry, nursery and greenhouse operations are common in Chilliwack’s farm areas, so ask the City what is allowed beside the property.
  4. Confirm the school catchment. Use the SD33 School Locator for the exact address.
  5. Get a full home inspection. Check the roof, drainage, furnace, plumbing and wiring.
