Housing Choices

About this project

Burnaby’s Housing Choices Program is introducing new housing options into our city, which bridge the gap between single-family homes and apartments or condos. 

The first new options we’re making our priority are Laneway Houses and Secondary Suites in Semi-Detached Homes (“Suites in Semis”). During our consultation for Burnaby’s HOME Strategy, you told us these were important new housing types for us to bring to our single and two-family home neighbourhoods. We heard you loud and clear, and now we’re taking action to finalize the requirements for these housing types as they become available in Burnaby.
