| Zoning - A Few Reasons Why You May Need Help Vancouver planners enjoy almost limitless discretion. Any decision on a planning matter is likely to be overruled by another department dealing with the same matter. Any zoning matter requires a review of not only the zoning bylaw, but a separate set of guidelines, official development plans and administrative bulletins. In Vancouver most land uses are conditional so that planners can exercise complete control over the design of buildings. The Vancouver Charter permits the creation of zones in which there are no fixed regulations at all. Zoning bylaws have been set aside because of a municipality's failure to make all existing studies concerning the matter available well in advance of the public hearing. |
