The vision for the VMC is to create a Downtown and Central Business District. The preferred option includes a non-residential requirement on certain mixed use blocks to ensure there is a real mix of employment and residential uses.

Mixed-use non-residential employment

Non-residential Requirement

The mixed use non-residential requirement ranges between 11.5% to 19% based on proximity to transit and the core area along Millway Avenue and Highway 7. The mixed use non-residential requirement also corresponds to areas with higher densities and heights.

The non-residential requirement will help ensure a minimum balance of uses within the VMC. There is flexibility in how this requirement is fulfilled, including various uses such as office, retail, services, institutional, cultural and community uses.

What do you think of the mixed-use non-residential requirement identified as the preferred option?
