City of Vancouver - New Development Permit Enquiry Service
Starting January 1st, 2024, a new development permit enquiry service is in effect at the City.
This new optional service for conditional development permit enquiries will provide early feedback and guidance on proposals to help applicants make complete and successful submissions of a development permit application. City staff will help you identify high-level design and technical challenges and provide advice and direction on form of development, variances, relaxations, and areas of discretion within City zoning regulations, as well as input from other key departmental review groups. The objective is to support project readiness and certainty in advance of submission of a development permit application.
