Rock Bay District
Have Your Say on the Future of Rock Bay!
The City of Victoria is working with the community to develop a plan for the Industry, Arts and Innovation District in Rock Bay, a key goal of the Victoria 3.0 Economic Action Plan.
We want to improve the design of public spaces, provide more amenities and services and modernize land use rules to encourage more industry, arts and innovation in Rock Bay. The goal is to foster a lively and collaborative hub that will create new jobs and services, strengthen the local economy and enhance public space throughout the District.
Project Timeline:
Over the past year we have been gathering feedback to help shape the future of the Rock Bay area. We have held four micro lab sessions and a walking tour workshop with the Rock Bay Working Group as well as a two-day ideas jam session that brought over 100 community and project stakeholders together to discuss their vision for the District. Using this initial feedback, we developed guiding principles for the District and gathered input from Rock Bay community members with a survey that closed on October 31, 2023. Feedback from the survey and in-person engagement sessions will help inform the Draft Action Plan for the Rock Bay District. Thank you for your sharing your ideas!
What's Next:
The Draft Action Plan for the Rock Bay District will be available for public feedback in the upcoming months before being presented to Council in early 2025. Stay-tuned for more details.
