Garibaldi Estates Neighbourhood Plan
The District of Squamish is developing a neighbourhood plan for the Garibaldi Estates. The goal for the neighbourhood plan is to develop a vision for the future of the Garibaldi Estates over the next 20 years. We want to hear from Squamish residents to create a plan that is a good fit for the neighbourhood, improves the livability of the area, and supports larger community goals outlined in the OCP.
There are four steps residents can take to participate in Stage 3:
- Review the land use scenarios.
- Review the emerging ideas.
- Attend one of seven engagement sessions to discuss the scenarios. (Events ran from February 27 - March 9, 2023)
- Complete the survey to register your feedback. Survey deadline has been extended to April 14, 2023.
We are happy to offer assistance to anyone who would like help completing the survey:
Drop-In Survey Sessions
We're hosting two drop-in survey sessions in the neighbourhood. District staff will be there to help you complete the survey. We'll have paper copies and iPads to complete the survey on. You can drop-in any time during the two-hour session and registration is not required. These sessions are to help anyone who wants assistance completing the survey. They are not open houses or information sessions.

If you know anyone who could benefit from help with the survey, please let us know.
Six sub areas have been created within the Garibaldi Estates. Each sub area has two or three land use scenarios to consider, which include a variety of housing forms, heights, and densities. There are two ways to review the possible land use scenarios:
- Click on the interactive presentation below (works best on a desktop)
- Review the PDF document for each sub area, which can be found on the right side of this page (desktop) or lower on this page (mobile device)
Please note, a variety of images have been created to help showcase the differences between each of the land use scenarios. The images only show the approximate height and density of potential future land uses. Other elements (e.g. design and location, aesthetics, parking, landscaping) are not accurate representations.
