The 2023 Legislative Fall Session saw a comprehensive package of legislation designed to deliver more homes in communities across the province. Key pieces of housing legislation passed included delivering more small-scale, multi-unit housing, updating zoning rules, reducing construction delays/speeding up delivery of homes, removing barriers and encouraging more communities near transit, services and amenities for growing communities. Legislative tools will be brought forward in spring 2024 to support local government in developing inclusionary zoning policies to create more affordable housing.
Cities and local governments may face challenges in implementing the new legislation effectively. It's important to note that the actual implications will depend on the details of the legislation, how it is implemented, and how local communities respond to these changes. Additionally, community engagement and feedback will play a crucial role in shaping the outcomes of these legislative initiatives. By addressing these considerations, cities and local governments can better navigate the implementation of the housing legislation and contribute to the successful development of more homes in their communities.
Join us for a panel discussion with Raul Allueva, City Manager, City of Coquitlam, Serena Lusk, CAO, City of Richmond, and Leon Gous, CAO, City of Burnaby, to hear how cities are grappling with these ongoing changes, and what they could mean for the future of their respective cities and the region.
