“The world and the way we undertake city building has changed,” the report said. “The existing Zoning Bylaw is cumbersome, antiquated, hard to navigate and understand for everyone , and is based on the principle of separating uses from the 1950’s and 60’s.” The City says that this is an opportunity to “modernize” the zoning bylaw and to “make it more nimble and responsive to a changing world; increase certainty, usability, and clarity; and streamline development review” in North Vancouver.
Additionally, the City says that it’s aiming to communicate the bylaw in visual ways, such as with diagrams and drawings, as another way of improving the accessibility and clarity of how zoning works., who the City notes has extensive experience working with municipalities to modernize zoning.
