What's being proposed?

A rezoning application has been received to allow construction of a duplex at 902 First Street, consistent with the Duplex, Triplex and Quadraplex: Interim Development Review Policy. The Duplex would have a proposed Floor Space Ratio (FSR) of 0.60. Both of the proposed units would be stratified, side-by-side, ground oriented, and family-friendly with three bedrooms each. Secondary suites and/or a laneway house would not be permitted on the property.

The proposal includes a total of two off-street parking spaces, accessed via the side street (Sinclair Avenue).

The proposal is to rezone the property from Single Detached Residential Districts (RS-1) to a Comprehensive Development (CD) District to facilitate the project.
