Vancouver is moving to remove rezoning requirements in key corridors like Broadway and Cambie—allowing developers to proceed directly to development permits on thousands of parcels.
This shift highlights a broader trend: municipalities are accelerating approvals and prioritizing density in transit-oriented areas. While it reduces red tape and timelines, it also raises questions about neighbourhood impacts and long-term planning.
