Proposed Zoning Amendments
As part of implementation of the Broadway Plan, the City is proposing some zoning amendments in specific areas. Some of the key proposed zoning amendments include:
- Amendments to modernize industrial zoning across the Plan area and to enable more employment space to be built in the Mount Pleasant Industrial Area (I-1 zone) and the Burrard Slopes Mixed Employment Area (IC-1 and IC-2 zones).
- Amendments to commercial zones (C-2, C-2B, C-2C, and C-2C1) to enable 6-storey mixed-use developments that provide secured rental housing.
Full details on the entire proposal can be found in the referral report to Council (May 9, 2023).
On May 9th, 2023 City Council referred these zoning changes to a public hearing. A public hearing is scheduled for June 15, 2023.
