Changes that will help municipalities with planning tools that enable housing developments have been introduced in the House of Assembly. Amendments to the Urban and Rural Planning Act aim to support housing development and affordable housing projects throughout our province. New rules will include inclusionary zoning, incentive and bonus zoning, virtual public meetings, and modernization of public notification methods. This will further strengthen municipalities’ legislative authority and encourage housing developments and access to affordable homes in Newfoundland and Labrador. Municipal and Provincial Affairs Minister John Haggie says “These amendments are proposed to encourage and facilitate affordable housing projects and housing development necessary to build vibrant and more sustainable communities.”
