3 Land Use 3 What is a Rezoning? Zoning in Vancouver A rezoning is a legal change to the Zoning and evelopment Bylaw to allow for a type of land use and/or building type that is not currently permitted. Vancouver regulates the use and development of property in the city through zoning. he city is divided up into many zoning districts. ach district has its own set of regulations and guidelines that specify: Rezoning is either initiated by the City following a change in policy for an area, or through a rezoning application submitted by a land owner. he City s objectives evelopment potential (land use, heights, he will be implemented by: setbacks, floor areas, etc.) 1 2 Privately-initiated rezonings his pen House is focused on City-initiated rezonings City-initiated rezonings Community Plan Since the plan was approved in 2016, changes have been made to two-family home zoning (R-5) in to add more housing choices in the community, which aligns with the recently approved Housing Vancouver Strategy. he changes, which were approved January 16, 2018, also incentivize and improve the feasibility of character home (pre-1940s) retention by making small lots eligible for infill development and increasing the FSR (floor space ratio) for infill development. he changes also simplify and streamline the process to make it easier to renovate a character home.

4 Changing Context City-Wide 4 Vancouver continues to grow and change as a city. o ensure we keep our city livable and sustainable, we re addressing various issues on housing affordability, development regulations and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, which will also have an impact on City-initiated rezonings in all community planning areas. Housing Vancouver Strategy In November 2017, Council approved the Housing Vancouver Strategy ( ) and 3-Year Action Plan ( ). he strategy recognizes our city is home to a diverse population - with a broad range of backgrounds, household types, incomes, and occupations. It aims to build the right types of housing for families, key workers, young residents, and seniors, providing the kinds of homes they need and can afford. he core goals of the strategy also include: protecting and renewing affordable rental housing across Vancouver; providing housing and support for our most vulnerable residents; and streamlining City processes for faster housing development. he City-initiated rezonings that form part of this current phase of implementation of the support the Housing Vancouver Strategy by adding a greater diversity of housing to the neighbourhood, including family-oriented housing, and working to preserve existing affordable market rental housing. City-Wide evelopment and Building Regulatory Review CRPRA PLAN 2017 An overview of the City of Vancouver s citizen and customer service priorities and delivery strategies In , the City is undertaking a major review of land use regulations and policies as part of our commitment to providing excellent service and regulatory innovation. Recognizing that the City s Zoning and evelopment Bylaw is complex, one of the goals of this review is to streamline and simplify the City s zoning district schedules to make it easier to use and administer. How does this relate to the implementation of the? o align with this regulatory review process, existing zones will be employed wherever possible for the City-initiated rezonings in, as opposed to creating new zones that are only slightly different. Green Building Standards Renewable City Action Plan Since the adoption of the, the City has updated its green building standards, with adoption of the Renewable City Action Plan, changes to the Green Buildings Policy for Rezonings, and the ongoing implementation of the Zero missions Building Plan. Vancouver is using the Passive House standard as one tool in working towards achieving zero-emissions buildings by he looks to improve the environmental performance of all new buildings in the neighbourhood, and opportunities to encourage Passive House construction are being explored as part of this current phase of implementation.
