Comments:

The C-1 focal commercial zoning district regulations of
Burnaby, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Port Moody, Surrey and
Whistler were reviewed to determine their direction for
regulation. In all cases the zoning was found to permit a much
broader number and variety of uses. The most restrictive
Municipality Is Port Moody that permits grocery stores,
confectionary stores and nelghbourhood pubs. The other
Municipalities, except Whistler, provided for a range of uses
that are associated with a smail shopping mall, which would be
zoned C-2 In Port Coquitiam. Whistler Municipality. offered an
interesting list of uses Ineluding child'care, bakeries and
Jaundromats in addition to the usual generic headings of
personal service and officas.

A regulatory change being proposed Is to slightly reduce
the maximum floor-area of commercial bulidings and to clarify
that this regulation applties to all commercial uses not just
retal! sales of groceries.
