NOTICE

 

PURPOSE:

The purpose of this application is to amend the Official Community Plan (OCP) future land use designation and zoning for 3 Blueberry Avenue, to enable development of a bare land strata subdivision with a maximum of four single detached dwellings.

 

Current OCP Designation and Zoning: 3 Blueberry Avenue is currently designated ‘Residential Small Holdings’ in the OCP and zoned ‘G3-C Residential Zone’. The proposed development is not permitted in the G3-C zone and it is not supported by the Residential Small Holdings future land use designation in the OCP, necessitating an OCP and zoning amendment.

 

Proposed OCP Designation and Zoning: The applicant has proposed to change the future land use designation to ‘Neighbourhood’ and change the zone to a new R3-D1: Low Density Multi-Dwelling Residential zone. This new zone, if adopted by Council, allows development of a bare land strata subdivision with a maximum of four single detached dwellings. The proposed future land use designation and zoning can be viewed below in Map 1 and Map 2 respectively.
