Bill 44 Zoning Map: What Can Your North Vancouver Lot Hold?

An interactive map of every lot in both North Vancouvers — the City and the District — coloured by how many homes it can hold under Bill 44, the provincial Small-Scale Multi-Unit Housing rules. They are separate municipalities with separate bylaws, and on this question they went opposite ways.

The City of North Vancouver rezoned its low-rise neighbourhoods into a single Ground Oriented Zone in December 2025: four homes on a typical lot, six where the Official Community Plan designates Low Rise Neighbourhood 2 or Residential Level 4, three on a lot of 280 m² or less. The District of North Vancouver caps its detached zones at three homes on every lot whatever its size, which is one below the provincial minimum on most of them, and leans on its wildfire, creek and slope hazard areas for the rest.

Click any lot to see its zone, its unit count, the rule behind that number, and a link to the full bylaw-cited report.

What the colours mean

Where these numbers come from

Bands are derived from each municipality's own zoning fabric, checked against City of North Vancouver Zoning Bylaw 6700 and District of North Vancouver Bylaw 3210 as amended by Bylaw 8799. In the City's Ground Oriented Zone the count and the floor space ratio both follow the lot's Official Community Plan land use designation under Table 573-1, so the map joins the OCP layer as well as the zoning layer. The three Transit-Oriented Areas — Lonsdale Quay in the City, Phibbs Exchange and Capilano University in the District — are all bus exchanges, so each is the prescribed 400 m radius and none carries a tier below 4; their boundaries are derived from the exchange points because neither municipality publishes a boundary layer.

Every figure on this map is a starting point, not a permit. Actual capacity for a given site depends on lot dimensions, corner and lane conditions, easements, and form of development. Run the address for the cited, per-lot answer.
