@ECityMom@mstdn.ca So, I'm not sure if this would help strike down restrictive covenants on former grocery store locations (that prevent them from being used for other grocery stores that would compete with the former owner's newer larger locations). I think the public interest in grocery store competition & walkable neighbourhood stores would be easy to demonstrate. However, in order for this section to apply, there would have to be a direct conflict between the restrictive covenant and a zoning by-law. So, the city would basically have to zone a lot to be a required grocery store, in order to create that conflict. I can't really see that happening.
