Arbutus Ridge Seaside Community for Active Adults


Arbutus Ridge Seaside Community for Active Adults is an age-qualified, gated community located on the southeastern coast of Vancouver Island in the Cobble Hill Electoral Area〔(CVRD web page on Electoral Area C )〕 of British Columbia's Cowichan Valley Regional District.〔(BCStats Location Map )〕 “Arbutus Ridge was the first comprehensive retirement community built in Canada and it subsequently became the template and proving ground for what has become recognized as an accepted and commonplace age-specific form of housing.”〔[Communication from the environmental professional who headed up CVRD's municipal planning function at the time of the Arbutus Ridge rezoning review.〕
==Location==
The community is constructed on a site on a ridge, rising + above sea level, overlooking Satellite Channel of the Strait of Georgia in the Salish Sea. The bordering seawater is part of Parks Canada's proposed Southern Strait of Georgia National Marine Conservation Area announced in 2011〔(Canada News Centre release on proposed Marine Conservation Area, October 13, 2011. )〕 to ensure ecological sustainability of the marine environment.
The community is north of Mill Bay, south of Duncan, north of Victoria and south of Nanaimo. A BC Forests Ministry scientific brochure compares the climate in this area to other locations in Canada: “This small corner of the province enjoys perhaps the finest climate in Canada. Sheltered by the rain shadow of the Vancouver Island and Olympic Mountains, and warmed by the air from the Pacific, the area basks in a Mediterranean-like environment of warm, sunny summers and mild wet winters. Unlike more exposed coastal areas, this zone experiences long, dry summers, a major factor in its ecology.”.〔(BC Government Brochure on Coastal Douglas-fir Zone Ecology )〕 Month-by-month historical averages are reported in the "Climate" section below.
