It's a little after the fact, but Salmon Arm Council voted in favour of a bylaw to rezone from R1/Single family residential to R-8/single family with a secondary suite.

Council received background information from staff saying the particular suite had already been built in the house at 3161 8th Avenue SE.

The illegal suite was discovered by the building inspector who was there to inspect interior renovations to the basement.

Staff recommended Council approve the rezoning to bring the house into compliance.

Council passed first two readings unanimously.   A public hearing will be held on May 12th.
