Amendments are being sought to the Okanagan Valley Zoning Bylaw No. 2800, 2022 (applicable to Electoral Areas “A”, “C”, “D”, “E”, “F”, and “I”) in order to update zoning regulations pertaining to secondary suites.

Amendment Bylaw No. 2800.59, 2026, proposes to amend Schedule ‘1’ (Zoning Text) of the Okanagan Valley Zoning Bylaw No. 2800, 2022, by removing secondary suite floor area restrictions, revising density allowances in certain zones that require a minimum parcel size of 1.0 ha or greater, and allowing for the inclusion of secondary suites within duplexes.
