In consultation with UBC, the GVRD enacted the Official Community Plan (OCP) to guide the development of non-institutional projects. Through the implementation of this GVRD By-law, UBC has the opportunity to nurture a sustainable community of great beauty and vitality.

The OCP provides a guide for approximately nine million square feet of non-institutional projects by establishing broad land use objectives, policies and other criteria.

By 2021, University Town's population is projected to reach 18,000, including residents in existing student housing. The result will be a vibrant and integrated community on the University campus.
