Since the SPCA site isn't in the False Creek Flats plan. Are industrial lands outside of those main industrial areas not restricted by Metro Vancouver?

5.1.1 Rezoning of industrial land should only be considered if it is enabled by a Council approved area plan or policy as identified in section 4 of this policy.

The Metro Vancouver Regional Growth Strategy, Metro 2050, contains policy provisions that allow municipalities to consider limited residential uses of affordable and rental housing on employment lands within 200 metres of rapid transit stations on upper floors of mid- to high-rise buildings with commercial and light industrial uses on the ground or lower floors. The inclusion of housing on employment lands requires careful consideration of both site specific conditions, adjacencies and fit within the wider area.
5.3.1 Despite section 5.1.1, the City of Vancouver will only consider the inclusion of housing on employment lands on sites that have been previously identified as a potential site for the inclusion of affordable rental housing as part of a Council approved area plan as noted in section 4 of this policy.
