A planning application (map) has been received for portions of 3404 Ellerslie Road SW and 404 34 Street SW. The application proposes several rezonings in the area:

• Residential Mixed Dwelling Zone (RMD), Direct Control Provision (DC1) and Public Utility Zone (PU) to Direct Control Provision (DC1) 
• Direct Control Provision (DC1) to Public Utility Zone (PU) to allow for a utility corridor and greenway.
• Direct Control Provision (DC1) to Residential Mixed Dwelling Zone (RMD) to allow for a mix of low-density housing (single-detached, semi-detached and row housing).
• Residential Mixed Dwelling Zone (RMD) and Direct Control Provision (DC1) to Residential Low-Density Zone (RLD) to allow for low-density housing (single-detached and semi-detached housing).

Approved Rezoning
A planning application (map) has been approved for properties at 3404 Ellerslie Road SW and 404 34 Street SW.
The application proposed to rezone the properties from Residential Mixed Dwelling Zone (RMD) to Residential Low Density Zone (RLD).
The Residential Low Density Zone (RLD) allows for a range of low density residential development, including semi-detached housing, single-detached housing, duplexes and garden suites. 

This zoning application conforms to the Charlesworth Neighbourhood Structure Plan.

City Council Approval Date: Monday October 7, 2019

Reference File Number: LDA19-0153

Planner: Email Kerry Girvan or call 780-496-6025 for more information.

A planning application (map) has been approved to rezone a portion of the site located at 503 50 Street SW.

The application previously proposed to rezone the site from Agricultural Zone (AG) to Neighbourhood Convenience Zone (CNC) and Urban Services Zone (US). The US zoning has now been changed to a Direct Development Control Provision (DC1). 

The proposed DC1 rezoning will allow for development of an institutional or community service nature, and mitigate risk around pipeline rights-of-way and abandoned wells through reduced setbacks for sensitive uses. The CNC zoning will remain for the remainder of the site. 

Associated plan amendments to the Charlesworth Neighbourhood Structure Plan (NSP) and the Southeast Area Structure Plan (ASP) are proposed to redesignate the site from Institutional/City Level Park to a separate Institutional and Neighbourhood Convenience designation.
