Fort Langley — Heritage + Character
A focused reference on heritage + character in Fort Langley, drawn from the broader Fort Langley area page — pulled out as its own page so it’s scannable on its own.
The village core sits within the Township's Heritage Strategy and façade-guidelines overlay. The practical envelope referenced in the Coulter Berry hearing was roughly 29 ft / 2 storeys at 60% lot coverage on village-core sites; individual properties may carry heritage designation that triggers a review process for exterior change.
Owners renovate routinely — plans go through the Township's heritage process. The Coulter Berry Building itself (developer Eric Woodward, opened 2014) became a landmark heritage-vs-development legal case: council approved 7–1, the BC Supreme Court halted construction in 2013, the BC Court of Appeal reinstated the project. Reading the village means reading the rules.
