Ellistown
The proposal is to change the allowable uses and development form for this property and close a portion of an adjacent road right-of-way.
An Outline Plan showing the concept plan for the development is included as part of the application. The application allows for:
- Under the M-CGd60 District (8.8 hectares), a maximum of 526 townhouses limited to 12 metre in height (about 2-3 storeys);
- Under the C-COR1f3.0h16 District (0.8 hectares), mixed-use and commercial buildings (e.g. commercial storefronts with apartments or offices above), up to 16 metres (about 4 storeys);
- Under the M-H1h18d155 District, apartment buildings (maximum 279 units) up to 18 metres (about 5 storeys); and -the uses listed in the proposed C-COR1, M-H1 and M-CG designations.
There is no Area Structure Plan or other local community plan for this area. Applicable policy is the Municipal Development Plan (MDP). The proposed outline plan and redesignations support the MDP in a number of ways, including:
- densification
- range of housing types
- optimizing use of existing infrastructure
- development of easily serviced land
- opportunities for affordable housing
