Council approved a text amendment at 2773 Strathmore Road, Langford, giving first, second and third readings to Bylaw No. 2252 to permit a group daycare in the R2 zone. The vote carried unanimously at the May 19, 2026 meeting.
The amendment does not alter the underlying residential zoning or density but adds “group daycare” as a permitted use, allowing the existing single-family dwelling to be converted or redeveloped for childcare. No conditions were attached to the readings.
Adoption at a future meeting would be the next procedural step, likely within two to three months, after which the zoning text amendment takes effect. The residential lot sold for $805,000 in May 2023, indicating the site may be positioned for a child-care operator.
A rezoning application for 2773 Strathmore Road in Langford, BC, was approved by Council on May 19, 2026. The applicant sought to change the property's zoning designation. Council carried the motion unanimously.
