About Strathcona Regional District
The area
The Strathcona Regional District (SRD) spans north-central Vancouver Island, the Discovery Islands and the mainland inlets across from them, about 18,200 km² of land with about 48,150 people in 2021. It is mostly forested hills and remote inlets. Campbell River (about 35,500 in 2021) holds most of the population; the villages are Gold River, Tahsis and Zeballos on the west coast, and Sayward on Johnstone Strait. The four rural electoral areas are A (Kyuquot-Nootka/Sayward), B (Cortes Island), C (Discovery Islands-Mainland Inlets, including Quadra Island) and D (Oyster Bay-Buttle Lake, south of Campbell River). Strathcona Park, designated in 1911 and the oldest provincial park in BC, covers more than 250,000 hectares in the middle of the district.
History
The SRD works across the territories of the Ehattesaht/Chinehkint, Homalco, Ka:'yu:'k't'h'/Che:k'tles7et'h', Klahoose, K'ómoks, Kwiakah, Mowachaht/Muchalaht, Nuchatlaht, Tla'amin, Tlowitsis, We Wai Kai and Wei Wai Kum First Nations; Campbell River sits on Ligʷiłdax̌ʷ land. Settlers arrived around 1900, mostly to log. Hydro power at Elk Falls (1948) and a pulp mill (1952, closed in stages from 2008) grew Campbell River, and forestry, fishing, aquaculture, mining and tourism still carry the economy.
Services and access
North Island Hospital Campbell River & District has a 24-hour emergency department and an intensive care unit. Highway 19 runs north from Campbell River to Sayward (about 50 minutes) and on to Port Hardy; Highway 28 heads west through Strathcona Park towards Gold River. BC Ferries sails from Campbell River to Quadra Island, and Cortes Island is reached by a second ferry from the other side of Quadra. The city-owned Campbell River Airport has daily direct flights to Vancouver.
Land and climate
Of about 19,170 hectares of Agricultural Land Reserve in the district, a 2017 provincial survey found 94% in natural or semi-natural cover and only about 3% farmed; small mixed farms persist on Quadra and Cortes. In BC a domestic well needs no water licence, though the province encourages owners to register theirs.
Before you buy
Only Electoral Area D has a building bylaw and issues permits; Areas A, B and C do not, though building there is still expected to meet the BC Building Code. Zoning varies: Menzies Bay (Area A), Cortes Island, Quadra Island and Area D each have their own zoning bylaw, and Desolation Sound falls under a rural land use bylaw, so check which applies to the lot. The SRD has a floodplain management bylaw and floodplain maps for the Oyster River, Sayward's Salmon and White rivers, Tahsis and Zeballos. Tahsis, Zeballos and the Kyuquot area have tsunami inundation maps, and Gold River has tsunami sirens. The SRD runs a FireSmart program with free wildfire home assessments.
