What BC law allows here

Under BC's small-scale multi-unit housing law, the city must allow at least 4 homes on this lot (a multiplex, a house with suites, or a house plus a laneway home).

If this lot were rezoned

Floor spaceHomes
Today's zoning (RD1)
from the city's bylaw, FAR 0.55		5,551 ft²about 4
Small-scale housing (Bill 44)
up to 4 homes, BC law, FAR 0.70		7,120 ft²up to 4

Rough planning numbers: homes assume about 85% sellable floor space and 750 ft² apartments (1,100 ft² for houses and townhouses). Transit-area figures are the minimum a city must allow on a rezoning, not an approval. Confirm with the city.
