Riverview Planning Applications

A planning application (map) has been received for a portion of a property at 2303 199 Street NW.

The application proposes to rezone the site from the Agricultural Zone (AG) to the Riverview Town Centre Medium-Rise Residential Zone (RTCMR).

The RTCMR Zone would allow for the development of low to medium-density housing with limited and smaller commercial uses at ground level. The RTCMR Zone would allow for:

• Buildings with a maximum height of 23 metres (approximately 6 storeys) intended for residential uses
• Commercial opportunities such as child care services, convenience retail stores and personal service shops at ground level

An associated application has been made to amend The Uplands Neighbourhood Structure Plan to enable this rezoning.
