Saanich has posted survey results from its 2009 South-of-Mckenzie Secondary Suite study: http://www.saanich.ca/business/development/plan/secondarysuitestudy.html#study.
The goal of the study is to look at the issues and possible regulations regarding the legalization of secondary suites, with residents and property owners of single family homes in Saanich neighbourhoods south of McKenzie Avenue.
Survey results identified over 70 percent support to the question “Please tell us how supportive you are of legalizing secondary suites.” The results are comparable with those of a 2007 survey conducted as part of the Official Community Planning review process: http://www.camosuncommunityassociation.com/documents/OCP%202007%20QD1A.pdf.
According to Saanich’s website, all of the feedback provided by residents will be presented to Council for its review and consideration in early Fall of this year.
