The Summer Village of Birchcliff remains a quiet, safe and secure community in serving to meet the lifestyle needs of permanent and seasonal residents. The community character will be personified by passive, family - oriented uses and activities and exemplified by the country lane atmosphere of Birchcliff Road. The natural attractiveness of the community continues to be conserved by the residents' attitudes of respect and stewardship of the landscapes, views, wildlife, vegetation, shoreline and water quality of the provincially significant Sylvan Lake.
