To All Park Use Permit Applicants

Current public health policy within the Province of British Columbia limits public gatherings.  To align Regional District operations with this provincial policy and for the safety of park visitors and our staff, we are not issuing any park permits until at least September 2020.  The Regional District will continue to monitor the situation and should the rules relax we will resume issuing permits.  Updates will be posted here. Thank you for your cooperation. 

A Park Use Permit is required for planned activities/events or services proposed within a Regional District of Fraser-Fort George (RDFFG) park.

Permit applications requiring RDFFG Board approval must be received at least forty-five days prior to holding the event. Applications for events and activities not requiring Board approval may be received three days prior to the event.

The permit enables the RDFFG to manage activities so they do not have a negative impact on resources, facilities, operations, or the general public's safety and use of RDFFG parks.

There is no cost for obtaining a permit, however, a damage deposit and/or site preparation/cleanup fee may be required.

To apply for a Park Use Permit in person or by mail:

1. Fill in a Park Use Permit application form with attached Release and Indemnification.
2. Return form to the RDFFG.

OR
