reenhouse gas emissions. It reduces travel distances to schools, work, and community amenities, makes transit service and active transportation (like walking and biking) more practical, and uses land and infrastructure more efficiently. This aligns with the direction of the Energy and Sustainability Framework. Who does it affect? People who live in neighbourhoods near a main transit route or transit hub will see zoning changes for specific areas of their neighbourhood. Please refer to the map that highlights these features. 3. Advance the development of missing middle housing in central neighbourhoods. What does this mean? In our city’s older central neighbourhoods, zoning changes will allow for the construction of missing middle housing forms (multiplexes, low-rise apartments). Why is it important? The initiative will allow smaller scale, multi-unit housing to be built in central neighbourhoods that currently have a mix of land uses, services, and amenities and are served by transit. The construction of what has been referred to as missing middle housing has been identified as an effective tool in providing affordable housing options. Who does this affect? This initiative is specifically focused on older central neighbourhoods with more standard narrow lot sizes. Please see the map located under our maps link. 4. Support the provision of greater housing diversity in established neighbourhoods. What does this mean? This initiative will include adjustments to zoning in existing residential neighbourhoods to permit incremental changes that support greater housing diversity over time. This will include updating regulations in the Zoning Bylaw to allow up to four units to be built on lots within the City’s intensification boundary and up to two units to be built on lots outside the intensification boundary. Why is it important? This initiative will support sustainable housing provision, long-term and equitable access to housing citywide. Increasing flexibility of housing type in established neighbourhoods will also make them resilient to demographic shifts, allow residents to age in place, and ensure that neighbourhood populations can maintain school enrollment levels and support viability of walkable neighbourhood retail. Who does it affect? This would affect not only the current residents of a neighbourhood but also those not currently living there, such as young families who would like to start their life off in an established neighbourhood. 5. Encourage conversion of non-residential buildings to residential (e.g., office conversions). What does this mean? We are looking to develop a pilot program to encourage building owners and developers to convert existing office or commercial buildings into residential use. Why is it important? Since COVID-19, we have seen a dramatic shift in how we work. Many companies have reduced their footprint in office buildings, creating a significant amount of vacant space. Converting this unused space to residential helps to utilize existing infrastructure and keep these buildings as vital members of the community. Who does it affect? We see this initiative benefiting both the participating landlords with vacant surplus office space and those individuals looking for an opportunity to live closer to work. 6. ...
