    Thank you for your question. From the applicant's Land Use Report, "the target tenant is 55 plus or retirement lifestyle, looking to downsize from a single family home". 

    Please note, the City does not regulate the residents of a building. From the City's Development Regulations, the proposed use is an Apartment Building, regardless of the age group it is marketed to, or the type of ownership.

    Thank you for your question. As part of the rezoning application, the applicants are required to provide a landscape plan to show which trees will be remain and which will be removed to accommodate the development. The City's Development Regulations legally enable any applicant to remove any trees necessary to accommodate their development. 

    The landscape plan and renderings of the proposed building can be found in the Land Use Report. 

  • Share I see there is another application to change an institutional zoning to Apartment 1 or 2. Rather than changing the zoning, could these apartment buildings be added as discretionary uses in the institutional zoning? I would expect that apartment buildings in general cause less disturbance in terms of noise, traffic, and activity than an institution would. Changing the zoning could also have the negative impact of making it more difficult to return this to an institution in the future when they may be needed. TLDR: I agree with the allowance of an apartment building but think it should be allowed within institutional zoning as a discretionary use. on Facebook Share I see there is another application to change an institutional zoning to Apartment 1 or 2.

    Thank you for your question. The City did consider this when we reviewed our Municipal Plan and Development Regulations, adopted in 2021. It was recommended at that time and continues to be recommended that an Apartment Zone is the most appropriate Zone for an Apartment Building.
