What if zoning rules weren’t barriers—but puzzle pieces?

In this episode, I sit down again with urbanist and investor Jeffrey Kirton to demystify the complex world of city planning, zoning, and permitting in Montreal. We break down acronyms like PPCMOI, PIIA, and CCU, and explain how developers can navigate these layers of approval to unlock real opportunities. From overlapping regulations to political bottlenecks, Jeffrey shares how to manage city processes with more confidence and less guesswork.

We dive into how to plan for setbacks, height allowances, and parking requirements—and why understanding both the written code and the unspoken rules can make or break your project. Jeffrey also explains how site selection, due diligence, and community engagement shape what you can actually build, no matter what the zoning map says.

Tune in to learn how real urban planning works behind the scenes—and how knowing the system can help you avoid costly delays and turn complex sites into real value.
