Belvedere Planning Applications

A planning application (map) has been made to rezone property at 6120 129 Avenue NW from Commercial Office Zone (CO) to Public Utility Zone (PU).

The proposed rezoning is to allow the existing Belvedere Transit Centre to be upgraded and modernized.

The existing zoning, Commercial Office Zone (CO), is a non-conforming zone with the existing Belvedere Transit Centre. This rezoning will bring the zoning into conformance with the existing use on the site. 

When City administration completes its review of the proposed rezoning, a recommendation will be made to City Council.

The proposed rezoning will be heard at a City Council Public Hearing. The public will be notified of the Public Hearing date and time at least 21 days in advance.

City Council Public Hearing Date: To be determined.

Reference File Number: LDA17-0366

Planner: Email Mark Harrison or call 780-944-0459 for more information.

A planning application (map) has been received for properties at 403 Belvedere Gate NW and  407 Belvedere Gate NW.

The application proposes to rezone the properties from Direct Development Control Provision (DC1) to Medium-Rise Apartment Zone (RA8) and High-Rise Apartment Zone (RA9).

The current DC1 zoning allows multi-unit housing up to a maximum height of 52 metres (16 storeys) and limited commercial opportunities at the ground level. The proposed rezoning would allow for multi-unit housing up to a maximum height of 60 metres (18 storeys) and limited commercial opportunities at the ground level, such as Child Care Services, Convenience Retail Stores and Specialty Food Services.

The applicant's intent is to maintain the 2 existing five-storey, mixed-use residential buildings along Fort Road and to allow more development flexibility for a future high-rise, mixed-use residential building to the south. 

The proposed rezoning conforms to the approved Belvedere Station Area Redevelopment Plan and Fort Road Old Town Master Plan, which designate the subject area for mixed-use commercial and medium to high-density residential development.

A planning application (map) has been approved for the City-owned Station Pointe lands at 580, 560 and 504 Belvedere Way NW and 404 Belvedere Gate NW.

The City proposed to rezone a significant portion of the Station Pointe site from direct control (DC1) to the standard zones of low-rise apartment housing (RA7) and Medium-rise Apartment Zone (RA8). The goal of this change is to allow more options for development at Station Pointe. This change would mean a move towards lower density townhomes and low and medium rise apartments rather than the original high rise residential envisioned for the site.
