Bill 44: Why Is This in Your Neighbourhood?
I spent an afternoon on two very different Burnaby streets. On one, new multiplexes now tower over homes that have stood for decades, blocking sunlight and pushing right back to the alley. On the other, at Holdom and Broadway, a full block of land assembly has sat for years.
Bill 44 is provincial legislation, and every city in BC has to allow it. But where and how this housing lands in Burnaby still matters. My idea is to put this kind of density on sites that are already assembled and waiting, where it can be planned properly with parking and amenities, instead of dropping it lot by lot onto established streets.
