New Westminster city council will consider a proposal to convert office space into residential rental housing at an upcoming public hearing.
The city has received an application to convert office space to residential rental housing in the building at 737 Carnavron St. Because the existing development's density is already greater than what's permitted under current zoning, rezoning is required.
A staff report states that the applicant is proposing the change to the existing office space, which has been vacant for a number of years, into 34 units of market rental housing.
Council will consider the rezoning application at a public hearing on Monday, Feb. 18.
