    The Hastings-Sunrise Community Vision from 2004 is the most recent planning policy for this neighbourhood. 

    This rezoning application is being considered under the Secured Rental Policy - a city-wide policy that applies outside of community plan areas.

    This proposal has been submitted under the Secured Rental Policy. This policy aims to increase the supply of market rental housing in areas that are close to transit, jobs and services. There are no low income housing or social housing requirements in this policy, however the maximum rents are listed in the Rental Incentive Programs Bulletin. Although these rents won’t be affordable for all households, the proposal would create increased housing choice and secured rental housing for the life of the building.
