Common questions

Is Boyd Park a real Richmond neighbourhood?

No — the City's own area list uses Seafair and West Richmond here; "Boyd Park" on this page means the neighbourhood around Hugh Boyd Community Park at No. 1 Road and Francis Road, and no City boundary for a Boyd Park neighbourhood is published. Board listings do use "Boyd Park" as a sub-area name — it is the name the Apple Greene listings carry.

Are there any condos here at all?

One complex: Apple Greene (8720–8880 No. 1 Road, strata plan NWS518), a low-rise wood-frame complex at No. 1 Road and Francis Road across from Seafair Shopping Centre. Everything else in the label area is detached houses on the official record.

How old is Apple Greene, and how big?

Phased 1973–1975: the directory records 1975 for the 8720 No. 1 Road building and 45 units in that building, while listings record 1973 for units at 8720, 8840 and 8860 No. 1 Road and 1975 at 8740 and 8760. A listing header describes a 411-unit development, which reads as complex-wide.

Can I have a pet at Apple Greene?

The building directory records the bylaws as pets not allowed. Pet bylaws remain enforceable in BC (unlike rental bylaws), so treat that line as live until the registered bylaws on the Form B say otherwise.

Can I rent out an Apple Greene condo long-term?

Yes — the directory's "rentals allowed with restrictions" line reflects a rental-restriction bylaw, and those have been unenforceable since November 24, 2022 anywhere in BC. Short-term rentals are different: a strata bylaw can still restrict them, and the registered bylaws govern that question.

Is Apple Greene a townhouse complex?

A buyer who wants its location and amenity set is buying an apartment-form strata unit, with apartment-form diligence (depreciation report, levy history), not a townhouse.

Is Boyd Park an official Richmond neighbourhood?

No — the City's own area list uses Seafair and West Richmond here; "Boyd Park" on this page means the neighbourhood around Hugh Boyd Community Park at No. 1 Road and Francis Road, and no City boundary for a Boyd Park neighbourhood is published.

What is in Hugh Boyd Community Park?

A pitch and putt course, artificial turf fields, turf sports fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, a playground and paved walking paths — with West Richmond Community Centre (fitness centre, gymnasium, squash and badminton courts) on the same site.

What zoning and suite rules apply to houses near the park?

Houses sit in Richmond Zoning Bylaw 8500 Single Detached RS1 and RS2 zones, with minimum lot sizes by subzone in Section 8.1.8 and secondary suite rules in Section 5.4 (33.0 m² minimum; maximum the lesser of 40% of the dwelling or 110 m²).

Condo buildings in Boyd Park

The City's own area list for its Official Community Plan work uses Seafair and West Richmond for this part of the city, and the label comes from Hugh Boyd Community Park at 9200 No. 1 Road; no City boundary for a Boyd Park neighbourhood is published.

Apple Greene (Apple Greene Park) — 8720, 8740, 8760, 8840, 8860 and 8880 No. 1 Road

Strata plan NWS518 (recorded on a unit's property record for 8720 No. 1 Road). A low-rise wood-frame complex of several buildings at No. 1 Road and Francis Road, across from Seafair Shopping Centre. Current listings describe freehold strata ownership, frame-wood construction, and amenities including a clubhouse, indoor and outdoor pools, hot tub, sauna, exercise centre, guest suite, library and recreation facilities, with heat, hot water and city utilities included in strata fees at some addresses.

Streets, schools and getting around Boyd Park

  • The anchor: Hugh Boyd Community Park, 9200 No. 1 Road, at No. 1 Road and Francis Road on Lulu Island — a City community park with the West Richmond Community Centre on site; the City lists its recreation area as West Richmond. Hugh Boyd Secondary School sits at the same 9200 No. 1 Road address.
  • Working anchors (no official neighbourhood boundary exists): the park at No. 1 Road and Francis Road, Blundell Road to the south (R.M. Grauer Elementary, 4440 Blundell Road), Granville Avenue to the north, and the Seafair planning area (planning area 6 on the City OCP Key Map) around it. Nearby: Terra Nova / Thompson to the north, Steveston North to the south across Williams Road, Blundell / Broadmoor to the east.
  • Where the condo stock concentrates: exactly one place — the south side of Francis Road at No. 1 Road, where the Apple Greene low-rise complex (8720–8880 No. 1 Road) stands across from Seafair Shopping Centre and a short walk south of the park.
  • The park itself: a pitch and putt course, artificial turf fields, turf sports fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, a playground and paved walking paths; West Richmond Community Centre on the same site has a fitness centre, gymnasium, squash court and badminton courts. The West Dyke Trail runs along the western dike west of the area, from Terra Nova Rural Park to Garry Point Park.
  • Transit: TransLink route 401 (One Road) runs on No. 1 Road through the area between Richmond–Brighouse Station (Canada Line) and Steveston Exchange, stopping beside Hugh Boyd Park and Hugh Boyd Secondary School; no SkyTrain station sits in the area. Main roads: No. 1 Road, Francis Road, Blundell Road, Granville Avenue.
  • Library and health: the nearest Richmond Public Library branches are the Steveston Branch (Easthope Hub) at 4320 Moncton Street and the Brighouse (Main) Branch at 100-7700 Minoru Gate; the nearest hospital is Richmond Hospital, 7000 Westminster Highway.

Local rules that affect condo buyers in Boyd Park

  • Richmond property taxes and utilities: 2026 property taxes were due Thursday, July 2, 2026, with a 5% penalty on unpaid 2026 taxes after July 2, 2026 and a further 5% penalty on any outstanding balance after Tuesday, September 1, 2026.
  • District energy: the Alexandra District Energy Utility applies to the West Cambie / Alexandra area only.

Good to know about Boyd Park

  • Official City sources show detached housing around the park and no named condo building. The MLS® sub-area label "Boyd Park" on listings at 8720–8880 No. 1 Road is what ties Apple Greene to this page; City planning material alone does not assign the complex to this name.
  • One complex, six addresses, two build years. Apple Greene's buildings run 8720 through 8880 No. 1 Road under one strata plan (NWS518), with directory and listing years split between 1973 and 1975 by address — document orders, depreciation reports and levy history run to the corporation and the specific building, not to a single "Apple Greene" date.
  • The amenity set is a 1970s resort package that still drives the fees. Indoor and outdoor pools, hot tub, sauna, gym, clubhouse, guest suite and library in a low-rise wood-frame complex means the depreciation report — now mandatory every five years — carries pool, envelope and parkade-free building systems that newer low-rises do not have.
  • The park across the street is a full community campus. Hugh Boyd Community Park holds the pitch and putt, turf fields, courts and playground, West Richmond Community Centre is on the same site, and Hugh Boyd Secondary School shares the 9200 No. 1 Road address — the complex's "across from the park" position comes with sports lighting, tournament traffic and school-day activity as the other side of the same fact.
  • The name on the park is Richmond's first warden. Hugh Boyd was the first Warden of the Corporation of the Township of Richmond, and the first council meetings were held in the dining room of his house on Sea Island after the Township was incorporated; the secondary school and the park carry his name.

The province-wide rules are on one page: BC condo buying rules.

Townhome complexes in Boyd Park

Streets, schools and transit near Boyd Park townhomes

  • The "Boyd Park" area is the west Richmond residential neighbourhood around Hugh Boyd Community Park, at No. 1 Road and Francis Road on Lulu Island. Hugh Boyd Community Park, 9200 No. 1 Road, is a City community park with the West Richmond Community Centre on site; the City lists its recreation area as West Richmond. "Boyd Park" is not a City neighbourhood or planning-area name; the City's own area list for its Official Community Plan work uses Seafair and West Richmond for this part of the city, and the surrounding ground sits inside the City's Seafair planning area (planning area 6 on the City OCP Key Map).
  • Nearby areas: Seafair (the planning area surrounding the park), Terra Nova / Thompson to the north across Granville Avenue, Steveston North to the south across Williams Road, and Blundell / Broadmoor to the east. Buyers also search "Hugh Boyd," "West Richmond," "Seafair," "No. 1 Road and Francis" and "Boyd Secondary."
  • There is no known townhouse complex in the pocket.
  • Transit and roads: TransLink route 401 (One Road) runs on No. 1 Road through the area between Richmond–Brighouse Station (Canada Line) and Steveston Exchange, via No. 3 Road and Westminster Highway, stopping beside Hugh Boyd Park and Hugh Boyd Secondary School; no SkyTrain station sits in the area. No. 1 Road runs north–south beside the park, Francis Road runs east–west at the park, Blundell Road is to the south and Granville Avenue to the north.
  • Hugh Boyd Secondary School, 9200 No. 1 Road, sits at the park itself, and R.M.

Local rules that affect townhome buyers in Boyd Park

  • Form B diligence (Apple Greene — the pocket's one strata complex, apartment-form): Strata Property Act s. 59 — the Form B states the lot's monthly strata fees, amounts owing, approved special levies still payable, the CRF balance and an insurance summary, with the rules, current budget, any Rental Disclosure Statement and the most recent depreciation report attached; provided within 7 days, maximum $35 plus up to 25 cents per page. The directory pet/rental lines here are directory data, not bylaws — the Form B and registered bylaws govern. The same diligence frame is what any future townhouse-strata purchase here would use; there is no townhouse strata for it to attach to today.
  • Depreciation reports / CRF minimum: since July 1, 2024, strata corporations with five or more lots must obtain a depreciation report every five years, not deferrable by vote — Apple Greene (NWS518, a multi-building 1973–1975 complex) is well over the threshold on either published unit figure. Since Nov 1, 2023, at least 10% of the annual operating budget must go to the contingency reserve fund. In a complex of this age, the depreciation report and the capital-project record are the central diligence items.
  • Fee-simple homes (the pocket's detached stock): There is no known fee-simple townhouse complex in the pocket; the fee-simple product here is detached houses with suite potential (below).
  • Richmond Zoning Bylaw 8500, Official Community Plan Bylaw 9000 (the City of Richmond 2041 OCP, covering the area with Schedule 2 area and sub-area plans; no Boyd Park plan exists in that structure — the surrounding ground is planned as Seafair / West Richmond), Flood Plain Designation and Protection Bylaw 8204. Houses around the park sit in Single Detached zones RS1 and RS2 (Section 8.1), with minimum lot areas by subzone including RS1/B 360.0 m², RS1/E 550.0 m², RS1/F 828.0 m² and RS1/K 315.0 m² and a 24.0 m minimum depth in most subzones; Small-Scale Multi-Unit Housing zones RSM/S, RSM/M, RSM/L and RSM/XL also apply in the bylaw as amended. The zone and dimensions of a specific lot are confirmed parcel by parcel.
  • Richmond property tax timing: City of Richmond property taxes are due once a year on the first business day of July — Thursday, July 2, 2026 — with a 5% penalty on any unpaid balance after that date and a further 5% penalty on balances still outstanding after September 1, 2026.

Good to know about Boyd Park townhomes

  • One complex, six addresses, two build years. Apple Greene trades under 8720, 8740, 8760, 8840, 8860 and 8880 No. 1 Road with 1973 and 1975 build years by building — a single-complex search under one address understates the stock, and a single complex-wide year misstates every building but one phase. Basis: above.
  • Apple Greene's levy history is the real due-diligence item, not an age rule. In a 1973–1975 complex of this size, the capital-project record matters more than any restriction. Listing-stated — confirm against the strata documents.
  • Seafair Centre's official paper trail is thin. The centre across No. 1 Road from Apple Greene is the pocket's commercial anchor in daily use, but its street address, grocery anchor and tenant list rest only on the centre's property-manager page, which is not an official source. The nearest library branches listed by Richmond Public Library are the Steveston Branch (Easthope Hub) at 4320 Moncton Street and the Brighouse (Main) Branch at 100-7700 Minoru Gate; the nearest hospital is Richmond Hospital, 7000 Westminster Highway, with Richmond City Centre Urgent and Primary Care Centre at #110, 4671 No. 3 Road.
  • The trail beside the pocket is the flood wall. The West Dyke Trail runs along the western dike west of the area, from Terra Nova Rural Park to Garry Point Park, as part of the City's dyke trail system — the recreation route and the 1:500-design flood structure are the same piece of infrastructure.

  • Flood / dike diligence — Bylaw 8204: flood construction levels and dike setbacks under the Flood Plain Designation and Protection Bylaw 8204 apply to new construction; the area sits in the Fraser River floodplain behind the 1:500-design system with dike raising under way. Get the parcel-level position before pricing a rebuild.
  • Aircraft noise: aircraft noise policy for Richmond is set out in City Bulletin DEVAPPS-05 and the Aircraft Noise Sensitive Development Policy Area.
  • If a parcel is in the ALR: subdivision within the ALR requires ALC approval; ALR residences cannot be stratified.

Good to know about Boyd Park lots

  • The name is a person, not a plan area: Hugh Boyd was the first Warden of the Corporation of the Township of Richmond, and the first council meetings were held in the dining room of his house on Sea Island after the Township was incorporated; the secondary school and community park carry his name. There is no "Boyd Park" plan, permit area or boundary anywhere in the City's framework.
  • One complex, six addresses, two build years: Apple Greene trades under 8720, 8740, 8760, 8840, 8860 and 8880 No. 1 Road with 1973 and 1975 build years by building — a single-address search understates the stock, and a single complex-wide year misstates every building but one phase.
