You may need some permits before starting work, including site preparation and tree removal. Did you know that most properties on Bowen Island require a Development Permit for environmental protection? Development work may be any activity that disturbs soils or vegetation. Visit the municipal website for more information: https://www.bowenislandmunicipality.ca/property-development
Also, consider using Active Design in your project to facilitate active living, an important part of a healthy lifestyle for physical, mental and social well-being. Visit the municipal website for Bowen-specific guidelines: https://bowenisland.civicweb.net/document/209880
