FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — The City of Fort St. John is holding a public hearing for a zoning bylaw amendment that would consolidate commercial properties. 

The proposed bylaw amendments for 9704 101 Avenue will change the property from an RM-2 Multiple Dwelling Housing type to a C-2 Downtown Commercial type property. 

This change will also allow for the consolidation of four commercial property lots into one larger property that will “support the development of an appropriately scaled multi-tenant commercial building containing office and retail uses.”
