The City of Vancouver has launched a streamlined permit process for smaller multiplex projects. Key features include:
- Apply for all development and building permits at once
- Faster and more predictable processing expected
- Smart forms tailored to your project
- Fewer documents needed overall
- Estimated fees up front
Use the streamlined process if:
- Your site is in the R1-1, RT-7, or RT-9 zone.
- You’re building exactly 3-4 units split across 2 buildings
(Building A: 2 units, Building B: 1-2 units). - You’ll apply for all permits at once (development and building).
