942 Wollaston Street

The owner of 942 Wollaston Street is seeking Development Variance Permit DVP00180 to reduce the rear setback from 4.5 m to 1.5 m to convert an accessory building into one dwelling unit. Council will decide the application at the May 4, 2026 meeting. Seven letters of correspondence were received: five in support and two opposed. Support centred on active transportation, while opposition raised short-term rental violations, privacy infringement, and the risk of a setback precedent.

A rezoning application has been submitted for 942 Wollaston Street in Esquimalt, BC, by the property owners. The application will be considered at a public hearing on May 4, 2026. No outcome has been issued at this time.
