A revised rezoning application has been submitted for a two-lot land assembly (17,427 SF) at 2805–2811 St. Johns Street in Port Moody.
A previous application from 2023 had anticipated a 6-storey commercial building.
While the site falls within the province’s Transit-Oriented Area (TOA) policy—permitting up to 12 storeys and 4.0 FAR—the applicant aims to achieve 3.84 FAR within only 6-storeys, leading to design challenges due to the site’s limited size and frontage. The proposal does not meet current zoning (CRM-2) requirements for lot size, frontage, or canopy coverage and has not yet fulfilled the City’s Inclusionary Zoning policy for affordable housing.
Despite some alignment with broader planning goals, concerns were raised by the Land Use Committee regarding the project’s non-compliance with CRM-2 zoning parameters, limited lot area, lack of sufficient tree canopy coverage, potential traffic impacts on St. Andrews Street, and the bulky building form. Staff also flagged that the proposal would likely require further amendments or acquisition of adjacent parcels to meet design, environmental, and livability expectations. The developer has also requested flexibility on delivering affordable housing, which is under review and subject to third-party verification.
The architect for the project is Mara + Natha Architecture.
