Wesgroup has submitted a new application to the District of North Vancouver to rezone and develop a townhouse project on a site in Edgemont Village.

A previous townhouse proposal for the 33,000 SF site was rejected by DNV council at fourth reading in 2018 amid concerns about the pace of construction and development in the Edgemont area.

The property is located in an area of the OCP that allows for townhouses up to 3-storeys and a density of 1.20 FSR. It is located at the southeast corner of Ridgewood Drive and Ayr Avenue, and is currently occupied by four single-family homes. The Grosvenor mixed-use development is across the street to the west and Amica Seniors Living is to the south.

The updated proposal for the site includes:

• 32 townhouse units;
• 12 two-bedrooms & 20 three-bedroom units;
• 900 to 1,500 SF unit sizes;
• a total density of 1.18 FAR;
• one level of underground parking with 64 spaces;
• $1.7 Million in off-site works;
• DCC’s of $420,400;
• CAC of $772,439 ($18.50 per SF).

The architect for the project is Integra Architecture.

The site was originally assembled by Boffo Properties in 2016 and later sold to Wesgroup following the rejection of the 2017 rezoning proposal.
