About Powell River Regional District
The area
Powell River Regional District has been officially named qathet Regional District (qRD) since July 2018; Tla'amin Nation Elders gave the name. It takes in the upper Sunshine Coast, from Saltery Bay north to Toba Inlet, plus Texada, Lasqueti and Savary islands, about 5,070 km² of land with about 21,500 people in 2021. About 13,900 live in the City of Powell River. The five rural electoral areas are A (Lund, the Malaspina Peninsula, Savary and Hernando islands), B (southeast of the city, to Whalen Road), C (Black Point, Lang Bay, Stillwater and Saltery Bay), D (Texada Island, with Blubber Bay, Van Anda and Gillies Bay) and E (Lasqueti Island).
History
Tla'amin people have lived here for at least 7,600 years, and their treaty with Canada and BC took effect in 2016, making the Nation self-governing; the shíshálh, Klahoose, Homalco, Nanoose and K'ómoks also have territory in the district. From 1910 the Powell River Company's pulp and paper mill drove the local economy, and the company built housing for its workers; the four communities that grew up nearby merged into one municipality in 1955. The original Townsite, with more than 400 company-built buildings, is a national historic district.
Services and access
qathet General Hospital in Powell River is the district's hospital; the qathet Regional Hospital District helps Vancouver Coastal Health pay for health facilities and equipment. Highway 101 runs south to the Saltery Bay ferry terminal, about 30 minutes from the city, for Earls Cove and the lower Sunshine Coast. From Westview in Powell River, ferries go to Comox on Vancouver Island and Blubber Bay on Texada. Lasqueti has only a passenger and freight ferry, no cars, from French Creek near Parksville. Pacific Coastal Airlines flies from Powell River Airport to Vancouver.
Land and climate
The qRD describes a wet coastal climate and sloping ground, where landslides and floods tend to follow long spells of heavy rain. A domestic well needs no provincial licence, though the province encourages owners to register it.
Before you buy
The qRD plans for Areas A to D through official community plans, but its 2020 land use study found that zoning covered only small pockets and that no electoral area had a building bylaw; ask qRD planning staff which bylaws cover a given lot. The province approves subdivisions. Lasqueti (Area E) is in the Islands Trust, which handles its planning and zoning; Texada and Savary are not in the Trust. Development permits may be needed in natural hazard and riparian areas; work within 30 m of a stream can require a qualified environmental professional's report. Some land is in the Agricultural Land Reserve; check the Agricultural Land Commission's property finder. The qRD runs a FireSmart program with free wildfire assessments.
