Child care facilities can now expand into different areas of Port Moody after council passed a zoning bylaw amendment…

The change means child care is a permitted use in all one-family residential and development acreage zones for up to 10 children. It will also allow child care use in some commercial and comprehensive development zones for facilities that would look after more than 10 kids at a time.

Staff proposed the zoning changes after reviewing child care regulations contained in the Community Care and Assisted Living Act and the BC Building Code.
