Servicing Feasibility Report
An application for Zoning By-law Amendment was submitted by Quartek Group Inc. (Consultant-Agent) on behalf of Branch 393 Royal Canadian Legion Senior Citizens Complex – Legion Villa (Owner/Applicant).
The proposal is to facilitate a 6-storey, 52-unit apartment dwelling intended to provide senior housing to supplement the existing 32 apartment dwelling units provided by the existing 2-storey building located on 171 Mill Street.
The Zoning By-law Amendment seeks to rezone the site specific Institutional I-19 that currently permits a maximum of 32 apartment dwelling units, and a minimum of 45 metres of front yard depth with a new Institutional site specific zone to permit an additional 52 units and six storeys, while maintaining the Environmental Protection zone for the Twenty Mile Creek.
