Cambie Corridor Plan
OverviewThe Canada Line, and the land uses around it, play a pivotal role in Vancouver’s future. Already well-positioned in terms of amenities and services, the Cambie Corridor is a key component of a sustainable, livable city of neighbourhoods connected to convenient transportation alternatives.
The Cambie Corridor Plan is a framework to guide change and growth over the next 30 years.
The Plan builds on the distinct character and context of the Corridor’s neighbourhoods to create complete communities with places for current and future residents to live, work, shop, play, and feel part of a community.

Planning Principles
5. Provide a range of housing choices and affordability
6. Balance city-wide and regional goals with the community and its context
7. Ensure job space and diversity
These principles, generated with the community, provide overall direction for the future of the Cambie Corridor. They are intended to inform comprehensive planning along the Corridor, as well as shape and inform individual land use change and future detailed development.
1. Provide land use that optimizes the investment in transit
2. Provide a complete community
3. Create a walkable and cycleable Corridor of neighbourhoods seamlessly linked to public transit
4. Focus intensity and community activity at stations and other areas with strategic opportunities for sustainability, renewable energy and public amenity

Cambie Corridor Plan
Public Benefits StrategyHow are these amenities funded?Public benefits are funded through three main ways:
Capital Plan:
Council prioritizes the amenities and infrastructure needed
around the city and makes them a part of the City’s Capital
Plan, which budgets for long-term investments. This is the
main source of funding for public amenity improvements.
Development Cost Levies (DCL):
DCLs are charged on any new development in the city
and are determined by the size of a development. These
augment the capital budget. DCLs are used to pay for parks,
childcare centres, non-market housing and engineering
infrastructure. They are limited in how they can be spent.
Community Amenity Contributions (CAC):
CACs are negotiated from rezonings and are used to pay for
a wider range of amenities and public benefits as part of the
planning considerations in a rezoning.

What are public benefits?Public benefits and amenities are key components in
livable, complete communities, and improve the social and
physical well-being of city residents. Public benefits include
daycares, parks, community centres, libraries, cultural
facilities, affordable housing and street improvements.
The Cambie Corridor, North of 57th Avenue, currently has
many facilities, amenities, and infrastructure that are well-
used by residents. This Public Benefits Strategy identifies
priorities over the next 10 and 30 years and includes
projects that renew existings facilities and infrastructure
as well as projects that address current gaps or demands
anticipated from future growth.

The Rezoning Process
What guides development?Community plans and policies are developed by City staff with public input, and are adopted by Council.
They lay out the long-term vision of the community and direct future growth and associated amenities.
These plans and policies outline where rezoning applications can be considered and what may be allowed on a site.
What is a rezoning application?Zoning regulates what can be developed, including the use (e.g. office) and physical form (e.g. height). A rezoning application is required when a proposal does not conform with the existing zoning.
An application must conform to the rezoning policy for an area and other applicable City policies. A rezoning does not mean there are no restrictions on what can be built.
How is my feedback used?Staff read every comment we receive. Feedback from the public and advisory groups informs the review of the application. Applicants may be required to re-submit their proposal based on the feedback. Staff make a recommendation to Council. Council makes the final decision on whether to approve, modify, or refuse a rezoning application.
What are the benefits to the community?Development, including rezoning, can support community benefits, including parks, community facilities, social housing, street upgrades and more.
Public Input:Speak or write
to Council
Public Input:Open house,
comment forms and advisory groups
Public Input:Engagement on
plans and policies
ImplementationAfter Council approves a rezoning application, the
proposal becomes a development application. This process finalizes the project design, as well
as the delivery of public benefits.
Planning comes firstThe City consults with the public to develop
community plans and policies that define what can be considered through rezoning.
Policy and public input guide the reviewStaff from various departments review each rezoning application to see if it meets the policies and goals previously set by Council.
Feedback from the public is an important part of this review.
