How to review a proposed change in zoning

October 18, 2019 By Hal

Updated Oct. 18, 2019 with new Secondary Plan and Zoning draft details.

1.   Look up the addresses you are interested in on the existing and proposed zoning maps.

2. Record the zoning labels and any “Site Specific Provision” numbers (located in parenthesis).

3. Look up the existing
zoning definitions,
special regulations and
special use provisions.

4. Look up the proposed zoning definitions:
MIX-1, 2, 3 & 4 (link updated Oct 18)
UGC-1, 2 & 3 (see page 79, draft definitions) link updated Oct 18
RES-3, 5, 6 & 7
(link updated Oct 18)
and Site Specific Provisions (new link) if applicable.

The City’s Page for our Civic Centre Neighbourhood Secondary Plan Update contains other links, including to other proposed zones
Section 9 – Commercial (COM)
Section 10 – Employment (EMP)
Section 11 – Institutional (INS)
Section 13 – Natural Heritage (NHC)

and the proposed Secondary Plan Land Use Map, Secondary Plan Text (16.D.1-3 general, and 16.D.9 Civic Centre) (16.D.9 begins on page 26) and special policies found in section 16.D.3.
