Draft - Official Community Plan - Surrey 2050

Part B -- Growth Framework

2.3 Planned Neighbourhoods

These are planned growth areas outside City Centre and Town Centres , supported by a Secondary Plan . The City has considered how these neighbourhoods should grow, and what infrastructure and amenities must be upgraded to accommodate that growth.

2.3.1 Future Plan Areas

These are areas where the existing OCP designations no longer adequately guide development.This is often due to significant upgrades of infrastructure and/or transit. Secondary planning is needed to determine appropriate growth and update the OCP designations accordingly.

Planned neighbourhoods are generally supported by the following designations:

Urban I Urban II Urban III

Low-Rise I Low-Rise II

2.4 Unplanned Growth Areas

Unplanned growth areas are areas that have not been the subject of a secondary planning process. In the absence of a Secondary Plan , significant growth is not planned. Through infill redevelopment, they will gradually incorporate more housing variety like small-scale multi-unit housing and complementary commercial uses while respecting the existing neighbourhood context. This is generally achieved under the property’s existing zoning or by rezoning to a zone consistent with the designation. Some further intensification, beyond the existing OCP designation may be appropriate where areas are well-served by transit.

Unplanned growth areas are generally supported by the following designations:

Suburban I Suburban II

Urban I Urban II

Low-Rise I Low-Rise II
