Proposed Changes
1. Floor Space Index (FSI) - Proposal by the Province will override all FSI zoning requirements in zoning bylaws if the property will have a basement suite, secondary suite or Garden Suite on the property. No limit to the size of buildings on the lot. OPPOSE
2. Building Distance Separation - Proposal by the Province will restrict building distance separation requirements associated with any building containing a ARU to a maximum of 4 metres. i.e. a Garden Suite can be no more than 4 metres away from the main wall of the house. OPPOSE
3. Maximum lot coverage - Would allow at least 45% lot coverage for all buildings and structures on properties with basement suites, secondary units or Garden Suites. OPPOSE
4. Angular plane - Would override all angular plane requirements in zoning bylaws for Garden Suites. The intent of angular planes are to reduce the shadowing impacts of a building and is appropriate for Garden Suites and other Buildings regardless of whether they have ARUs. OPPOSE
5. Minimum lot size - Would override all minimum lot size/ area requirements to support having an ARU. Some lots are just too small. OPPOSE
