Occupant Load Establishment | Cariboo Regional District

Occupancy Load Establishment

For all new and renovated establishments serving liquor, the Liquor Control & Licensing regulations requires an occupant load calculation confirmed by the local authority (Building Department). The occupant load will be determined based on the requirements of the BC Building Code for health and life safety.

An occupant load establishment will ensure Liquor licence requirements as per the applicable Zoning Bylaw are met.

Typically, this process should be completed within 20 business days but is dependent on the quality of submission.

Questions concerning Liquor and Cannabis Regulation Branch (LCRB) processing fees and regulations should be confirmed with the LCRB prior to submittal to the CRD.

Visit the LCRB website for regarding processing fees, regulations, questions and contact information.
