5763-5791 Oak Street and 1008 W 41st Avenue An overview of the rezoning application and supporting Council-approved policies November 2 - November 22, 2020 What is Rezoning? The City of Vancouver is divided into zoning districts. The Zoning and Development By-law sets out the rules for development in each zoning district, including the use (e.g. multiple dwelling) and physical form (e.g. height). Rezoning changes how a property can be used or developed through a regulation change. It is required when a proposal does not conform with existing zoning. The purpose of rezoning is to: • change land use regulations to enable development in line with City objectives; and • secure public benefit contributions to help address increased demand on City facilities resulting from the rezoning. 1000 0 1000 2000 Scale 1: 68479 Sep 01, 2020 15:09 Meters Site-specific comprehensive development districts (CD-1s) When a site is rezoned, the site is assigned a site- specific CD district. Each CD district is given a unique number to identify the district (e.g. CD-1 (647)). CD-1 district by-laws have regulations that are specific to the site.
