The City is carrying out zoning changes on properties along Dogwood Street / Dogwood Street South between 7th Avenue and Pinecrest Road. The proposed zones will incentivize transit-oriented development by increasing densities and building height permitted in this area, which is known for frequent transit availability.
The proposed zoning amendment will change properties currently zoned either Residential Infill (R-I), Residential Multiple One (RM-1), Residential Multiple Two (RM-2), Residential Multiple Three (RM-3), Residential Multiple Four (RM-4) or Commercial Two (C-2) to either the Dogwood Corridor Residential (DCR) zone or Dogwood Corridor Village Node (DCVN) zone. The proposed zoning changes are consistent with the Official Community Plan. The zoning changes aim to address community housing needs as part of the Housing Accelerator Fund (HAF) that the City received in January 2024.
AS PER SECTION 464 (2) OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACT, A LOCAL GOVERNMENT IS NOT REQUIRED TO HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING FOR ZONING AMENDMENT BYLAW NO. 3975, 2024*
