This legislation has opened the door for streamlined development of small-scale multi-unit housing (SSMUH), allowing Cowichan Valley homeowners to explore a variety of options such as secondary suites, duplexes, triplexes, and townhomes. With updated zoning bylaws and a drop in interest rates, 2025 presents a unique opportunity for homeowners to generate rental income.
