About 4,900 lots in the City of North Vancouver were rezoned on December 8, 2025.
If you own one, your lot can likely hold more homes than it could a year ago. Here's what Bylaw 9137 allows in the new Ground Oriented (GO) zone:
- 3 homes on lots of 280 m² or less
- 4 homes on larger lots in most neighbourhoods (0.85 FSR)
- 6 homes on larger lots along designated corridors (1.0 FSR)
The count is only half the answer. The envelope is tight: 10 m and 3 storeys (a basement counts as one), 3 m front and 1.5 m rear setbacks, 40–45% lot coverage, and 0.5 parking stalls per home.
On a typical 33 × 122 ft lot, that works out to 4 homes and about 3,422 sf, or 6 homes and 4,026 sf on a corridor.
Still pending: 6 homes near frequent transit on roughly 1,940 more lots was referred back to staff on May 11, 2026.
At InoBuilt, design and construction sit with one team, so we test yield, cost and schedule against the bylaw before you commit to a design.
