960 Herd Road

North Cowichan is advancing Parks and Public Places Regulation Amendment Bylaw No. 4076, 2026, for 960 Herd Road (Andy Hutchins Park), which would set daily pickleball hours from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The facility is one of the most popular pickleball destinations in Duncan, with four dedicated outdoor courts (Pickleheads, pickleheads.com). Council is being asked to give first, second, and third readings on May 20, 2026; if all three pass, adoption could follow at the next regular meeting, bringing the regulated hours into immediate force.

A rezoning application for 960 Herd Road in North Cowichan will be considered at a meeting on May 20, 2026. The applicant seeks to change the property's zoning designation. No outcome has been announced.
