The Denman LTC is currently engaging in Stage 2 for the Denman Housing Review Project. This Stage include two Phases. Phase 1 involves engaging the Denman Island Housing Advisory Planning Commission (HAPC), housing groups on Denman Island and community members to identify options for updating  the Denman Island Official Community Plan and Land Use Bylaw to address housing need.  Phase 2 involves advancing policy and regulatory amendments that focus on addressing housing need while preserving and protecting the natural environment.
