Building Division

Before You Start

HERITAGE CONSIDERATIONS Buildings over 50 years in age are subject to a Heritage review as part of the demolition permit process. However, the City does recommend that owners of these buildings consult the Planning Division prior to the Demolition Permit Application, to inquire what additional options are available to the development of the site, while retaining heritage structures. In what year was the building built? (https://frontcounter.newwestcity.org/nwinfo/webinquiry/frames.cfm) Does the property have Heritage status? (Registered, Designated, Inventory, Covenant, HRA) Y / N Is the property located in a Conservation Area? (Queen’s Park) Y / N Have you discussed with the Planning Department? Y / N

LANEWAY AND CARRIAGE HOUSES

Laneway and carriage houses must meet development permit guidelines, zoning regulations and Building Code regulations. The development permit guidelines provide direction for the form and character (the look) of the building as well as topics such as lighting, landscaping and energy efficiency. The Zoning Bylaw includes regulations for density, height, and parking in districts where laneway and carriage houses are permitted. Both laneway and carriage houses are referred to as “detached accessory dwelling units” in the City’s Zoning Bylaw.

A Development Permit is required prior to applying for a Building Permit.

If you are considering building a laneway or carriage house: • Contact the Planning Division and confirm that the zoning on your property allows a laneway or carriage

house. • Before you move forward with hiring any professionals or making an application, book an appointment for

a pre-application meeting with the Planning Division

In addition to this package there is additional information located on our website https://www.newwestcity.ca/planning-building-and-development
