The City of Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue recently underwent a
major overhaul of its urban planning regulations. Most
notably, the city replaced its traditional usage-based
zoning with a "Form-Based Code" (By-law 874), which focuses
more on the physical form and architectural integration of
buildings rather than just their intended use.

For the property at 20 Rue Maple, here are the specific
zoning details and new requirements:

Zoning Classification
Zone: The property is located in a Residential (RESI) zone,
specifically categorized for single-family detached or
semi-detached residences.

Context: Because it is situated across from the John Abbott
College campus, it falls under specific architectural and
density guidelines intended to maintain the character of
the South Sector while allowing for modern "missing middle"
housing (like semi-detached homes).

Key Provisions under By-law 874
The new regulations (integrated as of 2024/2025) emphasize
climate resilience and urban harmony:

Electric Vehicle (EV) Readiness: For new constructions or
major renovations, there are now strict requirements for
"pre-wiring" to support Level 2 EV charging stations.

Solar Installations: Solar panels are now explicitly
authorized on 100% of a roof (flat or sloped), provided
they do not exceed the roof's limits.

Building Form: As part of the Form-Based Code, any new
project at this location must undergo a Site Planning and
Architectural Integration Program (SPAIP) review. This
ensures the building's scale and appearance match the
historical and institutional context of the Maple Street
area.

Accessory Buildings: Detached garages or sheds are limited
to a maximum of 40 square meters (approx. 430 sq. ft.) and
must follow strict door-width regulations (typically no
more than two doors of 2.75m each).

Specific Lot Details
Lot Size: The property at 20 Maple is a generous 15,000 sq.
ft. lot, which is significantly larger than many
neighboring parcels. This size provides more flexibility
for potential "semi-detached" development, which is
specifically mentioned as a permitted "outstanding
opportunity" for this specific address.
+1

Demolition: If you are considering a teardown, By-law 846
(2023) governs the demolition of buildings. This requires a
certificate of authorization from the Demolition Committee,
which evaluates the heritage value and the "recyclability"
of the existing structure.

Next Steps
Since the city is moving toward more densification near
transport hubs (like the nearby Exo train station), there
may be specific setbacks or height allowances that apply to
a semi-detached project versus a single-family home.
