# Official Community Plan Bylaw 2025, No. 5500
The 2050 Official Community Plan (OCP) presents a long term vision and growth strategy that embraces all aspects of community development, ranging from physical planning (land use/transportation/utility), to economic development, environmental protection/enhancement, and social/cultural initiatives. Addressing specific current and future challenges that confront Chilliwack, the OCP recommends practical solutions and a consistent strategy. The 2050 OCP represents a unified vision that brings all of the City's initiatives, work and plans together and moves toward a healthy, engaged, and sustainable community, setting clear directions for:
* Long term growth strategies for residential (urban, rural, and hillside), commercial, industrial and institutional uses and the protection of the Agricultural Land Reserve

**The 2050 Official Community Plan (OCP) includes the following sections:**
* + Introduction: context; writing process; vision and goals; overview; climate change
+ Land Use: City-wide growth structure; growth approach; land use designations; and supporting regulation
