    Referring to Section 5.5.13 of the Cambie Plan, tower placement within a block must demonstrate a minimum 27.4 m (90ft.) separation between existing towers and potential future towers within the block and adjacent blocks. As such, the application is not anticipated to impact the location of surrounding developments.

    Staff routinely encourage applicants to engage the surrounding owners to ensure the land assembly creates viable redevelopment sites and not unfavourable redevelopment conditions for adjacent properties. However, if the adjacent property owners do not wish to develop and the proposal meets the intent of the plan, Staff will bring the proposal forward to Council for a decision.

    In this area, the Cambie Plan permits residential buildings up to 4 storeys with a minimum 15.2 m (50 ft.) property frontage. The two remaining lots to the north of the rezoning proposal and the three lots the south each have a frontage of 18.6 m (61 ft.) so a building up to 4 storeys could be considered.
