PURPOSE:  Bylaw 2376 would amend Schedule A – Text of the Zoning Bylaw by deleting the existing Section 6.16 CR-1 Town Centre Area Commercial/ Residential Zone in its entirety and replacing it with a new Section 6.16 CR-1 Town Centre Area Commercial / Residential Zone. 

Changes in this zoning amendment, if approved, will include:

  • Reducing maximum density
  • Encouraging more affordable housing choices and employment uses
  • Requiring more green spaces as part of development
  • Lowering overall building heights (current maximum height is 80.7 metres, approx. 25-26 storeys). Proposed heights are indicated in yellow circles on map in number of storeys.
  • Reinforcing the lower-scale, pedestrian-focused experience on Johnston Road
  • Requiring adaptable, accessible-ready housing
  • Notice was published in the April 8 and 15 editions of the Peace Arch News
  • 10,974 postcards were mailed out to all residents in White Rock 
  • A copy of the notice was placed on the public notice posting board on March 31, 2021

As of 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday, April 14, 2021 there have been 36 submissions.

Note: Submissions received between 8:30 a.m., April 14, 2021 and 12:00 p.m., April 19, 2021 will be presented "On Table" at the Public Meeting.
