City of Vancouver | Shape Your City – Proposed Amendments to Simplify Height Regulations

March 3, 2021

The following is an announcement from the City of Vancouver.

Regulation Redesign is working on simplifying and clarifying land use regulations to make them easier to understand. The City of Vancouver is proposing new definitions in Section 2 for “height” and “decorative roof”, and updating the definition for “base surface”. They’re also proposing amendments to Section 10.18 to modernize language and update terms, to provide more flexibility for rooftop amenity spaces and access, and to clarify decorative roof regulations.

Learn more about the proposed amendments to simplify and clarify height regulations and to share your feedback at Shape Your City. The comment form closes March 31, 2021.
