Langley City is growing and SkyTrain will soon be arriving in our community. The City's new Official Community Plan (OCP) was adopted to prepare for SkyTrain and take advantage of this historic opportunity to shape new growth to ensure the City is a walkable, livable, and sustainable place for all those who live, work, and play here, and make sure we are creating a larger supply and diversity of homes to meet the City's growing and evolving housing needs.

To make this vision a reality, a new Zoning Bylaw is being created. This new bylaw will update the existing Zoning Bylaw that is over 25 years old, and build on the OCP's direction to set specific requirements on building design, land uses, and more.

The new Zoning Bylaw will be developed according to the following schedule, with multiple opportunities for input and comment from the public, including residents, business owners, and the development community:

The project has moved on to Phase 2 after completing technical research and the initial round of public engagement. This involved an online survey and a public open house. The results have been compiled into an Engagement Summary, which includes important recommendations for how this feedback will be used to create the draft new Zoning Bylaw. The draft new Zoning Bylaw will now be put together and will be made available for public review and feedback in the next few months.
