Consultation has concluded

What's being proposed?
A Heritage Revitalization Agreement is proposed which would allow subdivision the property into two lots of roughly 4,300 sq. ft. (401 sq. m.) and 3,300 sq. ft. (309 sq. m). The existing 1944 house facing Nanaimo Street would remain in place, although the garage/sundeck addition would be removed. A new house would be built at the rear, on the smaller lot, facing Fourteenth Street. The heritage house would be larger than otherwise permitted with a density of 0.71 floor space ratio (FSR) while the new house would meet the Zoning Bylaw for size. Both houses would include legal secondary suites. Density and off-street parking space size relaxations would be required related to the heritage house, and some massing, setback, and accessory area relaxations would be required for the new house’s design. In exchange, the 1944 heritage house would be restored and legally protected with a Heritage Designation Bylaw and listed on the City’s Heritage Register.
There have been multiple opportunities for the public to provide feedback through the application review process. The process included applicant-led consultation and review by City committees. The review process has been iterative and revisions were considered, based on consultation feedback, throughout the process.
A Public Hearing was held on March 28, 2022, after which Council voted to support the application. All opportunities for engagement with this application are now complete.
