What's being proposed?

Official Community Plan (OCP) amendment, rezoning, and Development Permit applications have been received for 805 Boyd Street (Queensborough Landing Shopping Centre site). The applicant is proposing to subdivide off a 0.45 hectare (1.11 acre) parcel in the southeastern corner of the Queensborough Landing site to facilitate the development of a 12,241 sq. m. (131,766 sq. ft.), four-storey self-storage building, with a floor space ratio (FSR) of approximately 2.72. The facility would include approximately 1,081 climate-controlled storage units.

The proposed new parcel would contain 20 vehicle parking spaces, three loading spaces, and four short-term bicycle spaces. Site access would be secured by means of shared access easements with the larger Queensborough Landing site. The proposal would require demolition of a portion of existing building “F” (as shown on the first page of the proposed drawings). The OCP amendment and rezoning would apply only to the subdivided parcel and would not change the land use designation on the remainder of the Queensborough Landing site.

Note: This is one of two separate applications underway at the Queensborough Landing Shopping Centre site (805 Boyd Street).
