Whereas secondary suites in single family dwellings are a widespread form of affordable rental accommodation in many BC communities; And whereas the BC Building Code does not provide sufficient flexibility to allow existing secondary suites in single family dwellings to meet current Building Code requirements without incurring significant costs associated with reconstruction: Therefore be it resolved that UBCM request the BC government to establish a province-wide policy on alternative life safety requirements for existing secondary suites in single family dwellings.
