Planning applications received by the City in the Gorman neighbourhood.

Proposed

Portions of 1830 153 Avenue NW

A  planning application (map) has been received for portions of a property at 1830 153 Avenue NW in the Gorman neighbourhood.

The proposed rezoning is from the Agricultural Zone (AG) and Industrial Reserve Zone (AGI)  to the Public Utility Zone (PU), Natural Area Protection Zone (NA), Low-Rise Apartment Zone (RA7), and Residential Low-Density Zone (RLD). 

The proposed rezoning would allow for:

  • development of the future LRT alignment (PU zone)
  • conservation of an existing tree stand (NA zone)
  • development of multi-unit housing to a maximum height of 14 metres (approximately 4 storeys) (RA7 zone)
  • development of single detached housing, semi-detached housing or duplex housing with flexibility in lots sizes and widths (RLD zone)

The proposed rezoning complies with the  Gorman Neighbourhood Structure Plan , which designates the rezoning area as a natural area (MR zone), medium-density residential, and low-density residential. The LRT aligns with the purpose of the proposed PU Zone to provide public benefit.
