From the meeting
At the October 8, 2026 meeting, the council considered Rezoning Application No. 00902 and Development Permit with Variances No. 000657 for 2580 and 2582 Vancouver Street.
The proposal would enable a six-storey non-market housing project with 40 units, a 60-year rental term, and at least 5% below-market units, with Victoria Native Friendship Centre or another eligible housing body operating it. The applicant is still pursuing funding, so the project remains open even though the land-use approval path is advanced. Sellers in affordable housing, legal agreements, and construction support should watch the funding and implementation follow-up.
