Improving Housing Supply We recommend the provincial government take the following actions: 1. Empower Official Community Plans (OCPs) to reduce unnecessary public hearings - implementing the following opportunities outlined in DAPR will ensure community input and local government effectiveness: - conduct a provincial policy review to consider trying development approvals to housing targets; - provide local governments with best practices for writing, adopting and amending OCPs, and - provide training and a best practices guide on how and when to hold public hearings. 2. Leverage transportation funding and OCPs to encourage local governments to increase gentle densification - diversity in housing stock helps residents find appropriate homes they can afford, and diversity includes more affordable family-friendly alternatives such as duplexes, triplexes, secondary suites and laneway/coach homes. This is important throughout the province, particularly in neighbourhoods accessible to transit.
