What's Happening Now
Staff are currently reviewing the feedback received on the Cemetery Master Plan and an engagement report will be available for residents and Council to review.
The City sought feedback on the future of cemetery services in Delta and on the proposed plans for the Boundary Bay and North Delta cemeteries. In November 2025, residents were invited to share their thoughts on a proposed Cemetery Master Plan which will guide investments in interment and memorial services over the next 25 years.
The engagement period concluded on January 25, 2026, in-person engagement events were made available for residents to ask questions, learn more about the proposed plans, and share their perspectives directly with City staff.
📋Project Background
Today, Boundary Bay Cemetery is nearing capacity, and families are seeking more diverse ways to celebrate and memorialize their loved ones. The proposed plan focuses on expanding burial services at the North Delta Cemetery including new green burial spaces, while Boundary Bay Cemetery shifts toward more cremation and memorial offerings.
📣Share Your Feedback
Two in-person engagement sessions were held for residents to discuss the project in-person:
- January 20, 2026, from 9:30 to 11:30 am at the Kennedy Seniors Recreation Centre (North Delta)
