Meeting Background
As part of the Housing Action Plan (HAP), the City is taking a multi-pronged approach to increase housing supply, choice and affordability for current and future residents. The Avenues Policy Review is one of 54 HAP actions to increase housing supply by examining and removing policy barriers to new housing. Through the Avenues Policy Review Phase 1, which was adopted by City Council in February 2025, new Avenues were identified throughout the city, a new vision and policies to guide growth and change along Avenues was established, and study requirements were streamlined. Phase 2 will look at opportunities to redesignate and rezone certain areas along the Avenues and create areas of transition between Avenues and Neighbourhoods to help facilitate new mid-rise housing opportunities.
