Residential zoning is changing across the City. Residential zoning is changing across the City. The permissions for the types of housing that can be located throughout a neighbourhood have expanded to support growth in a more responsible and equitable way. The City’s Residential Zones Project is looking at how different types of housing can be built within and along the edges of neighbourhoods. Reimagining Neighbourhoods is about providing housing choice and more affordable housing options for the residents of Hamilton. The Mid-Rise Residential Zones is the next step to increase unit choice across the City.
