Another Cambie Street Proposal; This Time on a Small Site

An application has been submitted under the Cambie Corridor Plan to rezone 7790 Cambie Street from RT-1 to CD-1 to allow a 6-storey rental building that includes:

  • 27 market housing units;
  • a building height of 70.5 ft. from grade;
  • a density of 2.70 FSR
  • 23 underground parking space

What’s unique about this proposal is that the site is only 118 ft x 72 ft. (8,501 SF).

More Towers for Burquitlam

Two major developers will soon have proposals before Coquitlam city council to add to the massive growth now happening in a neighbourhood with a future Evergreen Line station.

Last week, more than 80 people were at an open house in Burquitlam hosted by Beedie Living, which plans to rezone its property west of the Como Lake Avenue and Clarke Road intersection for a 26-storey residential tower that would link in with the YWCA Como Lake Gardens facility.

Houtan Rafii, Beedie’s vice president of residential development, told The Tri-City News the feedback was positive about its bid to build 180 homes plus seven townhouses and an amenity space for the YWCA to expand its affordable housing services to single mothers and their kids.

Beedie’s proposal, which has been formally submitted to city staff, would also include a multi-level parkade as well as a vehicle roundabout, close to the Evergreen station. Rafii said Beedie’s bid fits in with the city’s transit-oriented development and affordable housing strategies.

City Reviewing Future of Oakridge Transit Centre Site

The City of Vancouver is proposing a program to create a Policy Statement to guide redevelopment of the Oakridge Transit Centre, a 13.8 acre site owned by Translink and located at 949 West 41st Avenue.
OTC
The Policy Statement will establish principles and objectives relating to a range of topics, including: land use, density, height, public benefits, transportation, built form and character, sustainability and development phasing. The Policy Statement will be presented for Council’s consideration at the end of the process and, if adopted, used to inform any future rezoning of the site. This work is expected to be complete by February 2015.
The property is currently zoned single family (RS-1) but has been utilized as a transit centre since August 13, 1948. TransLink has determined that the OTC site is no longer required to perform these limited functions and is considered surplus land as a result they are seeking to explore redevelopment options for the site.

Avalon Dairy Developer Prepares Revised Proposal

A plan to develop the former Avalon Dairy property at 5805 Wales St. hit a snag earlier this month when the Urban Design Panel (UDP) voted 7-0 against a revised version of the proposal. But city staff say the proponent is working on further revisions based on advice from the UDP and is tentatively scheduled to go back before the panel March 26.

The UDP is an advisory body to the city. Its decisions are not binding on the city.

Avalonna Homes bought the Avalon Dairy property for $6 million in 2011. It’s zoned single-family residential, so the owner could subdivide it into 10 or 11 lots, but the city is willing to consider extra density in order to preserve the Craftsman-style farmhouse on the lot, which Avalon founder Jeremiah Crowley built in 1908.

The UDP voted unanimously against an earlier proposal in 2013. Brian Jackson, the city’s manager of planning and development, told the Courier that the panel cited many reasons, including too much density, the need for more space in front of the house for urban agriculture, concern about shadow impacts on the open space, and that the buildings are too close together and not family friendly.
