Southwest Housing Review
The Southwest Housing Review (SWHR) is a multi-year planning effort to support the provision of more diverse housing options in Southwest Coquitlam. The project consists of four streams of work, which are:
- A review of neighbourhood pockets where residents have come forward requesting a review of the land use designation of their neighbourhood;
- Creation of a Corridor Development Strategy (CDS) for key arterial streets;
- A review of the potential expansion of the recently updated Housing Choices Program into other areas of Southwest Coquitlam; and
- A review of infill housing options in single-family areas to further address the policy directions in the Southwest Coquitlam Area Plan.
(Read more about these work streams by clicking the "Overview" tab below.)
