City of Surrey

A growing city

Surrey is a growing city. As it grows, we need to plan so Surrey continually becomes a greener, more complete, more compact and connected community. We want to create a community that is sustainable, resilient, safer, inclusive, healthier, and more beautiful.

Official Community Plan

Surrey's Official Community Plan (OCP) is a comprehensive, long-term plan that guides our planning decisions. It outlines how community development or land use decisions are made in Surrey.

The current OCP was adopted by Council in 2014 and goes through an annual review that citizens can read.
