Bosa Properties and Kingswood Properties have submitted a new rezoning application for their project at 1040-1080 Barclay Street.

The proposal is to allow for the development two residential towers of 54-storeys and 50-storeys in height over ten levels of underground parking. The new proposal includes:

• 506 secured market rental units and 130 below market units (East tower);
• 365 market strata-titled units and 99 social housing units (West tower);
• retail space at grade in both towers
• 37 space childcare facility on level eight of West tower
• An overall density of 21.87 FSR;
• A building height of 572 ft. (East tower) and 567 ft. (West tower)
• 832 vehicle parking spaces and 2,256 bicycle parking spaces.

The application is being considered under the West End Community Plan(External link), Criteria for 100% Secured Rental and Below-Market Housing as an Alternative to Inclusionary Social Housing in the Burrard Corridor of the West End Community Plan(External link), and the Sustainable Large Developments Policy(External link).

Pennyfarthing Homes has submitted a rezoning application for a 4-lot land assembly at 5079-5161 Ash Street, one block West from Cambie Street at the proposed extension of West 35th Avenue. The proposal is to allow for the development of a 6-storey condo building that includes:

• 62 condo units;
  • 1 studio, 22 one-bedrooms, 31 two-bedrooms & 14 three-bedrooms;
• A total density of 2.0 FSR;
• A building height of 71 ft.
• 73 vehicle parking spaces and 135 bicycle parking spaces.

The proposed project requires a future extension of West 35th Avenue which would allow access into the Heather Lands Development to the West of the site.

The application is being considered under the Cambie Corridor Plan.

Onni has applied to rezone the final phase of their 21 acre Evelyn project in West Vancouver. ‘Lot 8’ totals 3 acres of vacant land at Taylor Way and Evelyn Drive.

Most of the overall project has now been completed. The remaining six single family dwellings on Lot 10 and
the four townhouses on Lot 6 (attached to Lot 7) are now under construction.

Lot 8 is the largest development parcel at Evelyn. The proposed rezoning for the site contemplates a terraced building similar to the ‘Forest Edge’ buildings in Lots 5 & 7.

The proposal seeks to add 109 additional rental units to the site. The current zoning for Lot 8 allows for a residential apartment building containing up to 119 units, of which a minimum of 30 of those must be for rental housing. The proposal is to increase the number of secured rental units from 30 to 139 (17 affordable units plus 122 market rental). There is no increase to the number of condo units (stays at 89). The total proposed number of units for Lot 8 would increase 119 to 228 and the overall unit count at Evelyn by Onni would increase from 350 to 459.

Details for the Lot 8 rezoning include:

• 228 total units
  • 89 condos (including 10 townhouses)
  • 122 market rental units
  • 17 below-market rental units
• a total density of 1.85 FSR;
• building heights from 5 to 8-storeys with site slope;
• public realm additions including a pedestrian path at the south end of the site to complete the east-west connection to Taylor Way, and new landscaping
• indoor and outdoor resident amenity areas
• 294 underground parking spaces.

There is no CAC applicable given the addition of rental and below market rental units.
