The intent for buildings constructed to the rear of existing primary buildings is that these buildings are secondary to the primary building in size, height, and intensity. This is reflected in current zoning requirements for both accessory buildings and detached secondary suites.

With the allowance of multiple primary buildings on a single property, more flexible standards, and higher demolition costs, some recent developments have been built with multi-unit buildings located behind existing detached homes. Without specific development standards to consider this type of development, concerns have been raised by both residents and staff on the appropriateness of building location, setbacks, size, height, and servicing. As well, staff have concerns with whether this type of development aligns with the intent of the City Plan and considers the context of the existing neighbourhood.

With completion of a full review of the current Zoning By-law still underway and not expected to be adopted until 2027, City administration is recommending restricting this type of infill development until the Zoning Bylaw review is complete, allowing City administration time to further refine existing regulations if this type of infill development is still acceptable for consideration.

CMHC, in partnership with EY, is conducting a national survey to understand current conditions, challenges, and development activity in Canada’s purpose-built rental market. The survey focuses on developers’ and investors’ experiences with project pipelines, approvals, financing, costs, and risk. It also explores the key factors affecting project viability, timing, and delivery. These insights will inform CMHC’s ongoing efforts to advance the development of new housing supply.

This survey is intended for developers, investors, and development managers involved in the planning, financing, or delivery of purpose-built rental housing projects in Canada. It should be completed by senior decision-makers with direct knowledge of their organization’s development pipeline, financing activity, market outlook, and key risks or decision thresholds.
