FAQ

Rezoning Services in Burnaby: Common Questions

Rezoning is needed when you want to build something not permitted under your current zoning — such as a larger multiplex, a mixed-use building, or a density increase beyond what BC's SSMUH rules allow as of right. We assess whether your project requires rezoning during a free consultation.

Rezoning timelines are set by the City of Burnaby and vary based on application complexity and current municipal workloads. We outline a realistic timeline for your specific application during our initial consultation.

Yes. BC's SSMUH legislation now allows 4+ units on most Burnaby residential lots without rezoning. This means projects that previously required rezoning may now proceed as of right. We confirm whether your project qualifies during a free consultation.

Yes — this is one of our key advantages. We guide your Burnaby property through rezoning and then transition directly into the design and construction phase, eliminating the need to coordinate between separate teams.
