Planning Stadium Neighbourhood is a collaborative process intended to deliver a great community of and for UBC.
Guiding Principles
Neighbourhood planning at UBC is guided by the following principles, which were adopted by the UBC Board of Governors in December 2017. These principles reflect what we heard in Phase 1 of the consultation. See the handout for more details on each of the principles.
Build long-term value
Prioritize affordable living
Create a community for and of UBC
Be a great neighbour
Use the site to shape the place
Enhance the ecology and reduce our carbon footprint
Promote a high efficiency and low impact transportation network
Design for flexibility and resilience
Engage the campus community and stakeholders in a meaningful way
LAND USE PLAN AMENDMENT
The proposed Plan Options for the Stadium Neighbourhood Plan will trigger changes to the Land Use Plan. These include updating the neighbourhood boundary (to reflect the new location of the stadium) and changing building heights and densities. A Land Use Plan amendment requires a public hearing (in early 2019) and Provincial approval.
