Subdivisions

Subdivision is the process to create new, titled parcels of land. A rezoning or development variance permit may be required prior to a subdivision application, if the current zone does not have enough lot area or frontage to allow for additional lot(s). This can be confirmed with a review of the current zoning regulations in the Land Use Bylaw. 

The following are types of subdivisions where approval of the Approving Officer is required:

  • Adjusting lot boundaries between two or more parcels;
  • Creating several new lots from one or more parcels;
  • Creating lots in a bare land strata development;
  • Creating a phased strata plan development;
  • Strata conversion
