    The lane is being kept in place to facilitate transportation access and utility servicing (e.g. recycling and garbage pickup).

  • Share I has asked about when the results from the Urban Design panel would be available. Thank you for your reply. You indicated that it may still be three weeks before the minutes are available. The virtual Open House is over on June 28. Will the minutes be available sufficiently in advance of June 28 to allow people to read the UDP's views before making comments? Question 2: The Interim Rezoning policy states that for areas zoned C-1, that the form of development will consider 4 storey mixed use generally consistent with C2 zoning. How does this application fit into that policy which was adopted by council? It seems to be much higher and with smaller setbacks than C2.

    In response to the first question, the Urban Design Panel minutes are being reviewed, but may not be available before the close of the virtual open house. However, after June 28, the public may still provide comments on this page through the ‘Send your comments’ tab, or by contacting the rezoning planner directly. All comments are reviewed and summarized for Council, but are not posted publicly.

    In response to the second question, this application is being considered under the Affordable Housing Choices Interim Rezoning Policy, adopted by Council in 2012. Under this policy, sites fronting an arterial street (Fraser St.) that are on TransLink’s Frequent Transit Network and within close proximity of a local shopping area may be considered for a mid-rise form up to 6 storeys in height.
