A prevalent land use within the Interlakes Plan area is residential use, mostly located in clusters around the many lakes of the area. These properties are used both by seasonal occupants, as well as by permanent residents. The Interlake Official Settlement Plan had made provisions for ample land to accommodate both the development that existed at the time of Plan adoption, as well as for future development. The background report prepared in 2003 indicated from BC Assessment data that many residential lots were still undeveloped, yet designated and zoned for residential use. It is recognized that some of these lots are not strongly desirable due to factors such as lot configuration, soil characteristics and topography. Nevertheless, the Interlakes Area Official Community Plan has not increased the amount of land designated Residential from the Settlement Plan, but will provide for consideration of additional Residential designations by a sustainable and managed approach.
