The typical cost approach valuation equals the bare land value + depreciated cost of improvements. The bare land value would include adjustment for locational factors. So it's a little strange to say that location is not a factor when it should be captured indirectly within the land value component. You'd have to ask an assessor though.

I've never heard of that happening - I believe a land use amendment would need to be initiated by the landowner.
Council however has the power to rezone properties without necessarily having owner approval. Typically we see this when a new ARP is adopted or if the land use bylaw is updated. Usually this is done with resident consultation.
