9 Erskine Lane – Rezoning Application

  • Widening of Erskine Lane through a land dedication
  • Building a roundabout or traffic circle at Watkiss/Erskine
  • Providing approximately 90% of the parking under the proposed buildings
  • Payment of nearly $1.2 M to be used for community amenities
  • Increased property tax through developing underutilized land to a higher density residential development
  • Serving as the transition between single family homes and moving to higher density development within the Hospital Neighbourhood Centre
  • Helping to accommodate population growth and meeting the housing need in the area
  • Providing a variety of high-quality units that will allow for people of different ages and income levels
  • Utilizing existing infrastructure more efficiently and therefore minimizing operating cost impacts
  • Providing a 20-year purpose built rental development by placing a rental covenant on title
  • If desired by the Town, providing up to 10% of affordable rental units as define by BC Housing through the HousingHub
  • We have provided children’s play equipment onsite, but if desired by the Town, this could be move to another location (along Game Road) to be accessible by the public.

Amenities:

In reviewing the City’s Amenity policy, it a would appear that the proposed project will be required to provide 50% lift in value of the land after zoning is approved versus paying a per unit rate. Given that the project is proposing 100% purpose-built rental, WestUrban Developments Ltd. respectfully request that the City require the lesser value of the two methods of calculating the amenity contribution. This will assist in keeping the project viable.

The following building amenities being offered will include:

  • EV charging stations;
  • Bike share
  • 4 car share vehicles (1 per building)
  • 20 -year rental covenant with the municipality; and
  • Diverse rental unit mix – studio, 1-bedrooms, 2-bedrooms and 3-bedrooms.

ATTACHMENT 1 – DEVELOPMENT PERMIT AREA: MIXED RESIDENTIAL

GUIDELINES – DESIGN CHARACTER HOW IT COMPLIES HOW IT DOES NOT COMPLY
i. Residential buildings should address the public realm and contribute to a positive pedestrian-friendly streetscape. As the topography of and tree retention on the site will not allow for buildings to be oriented toward the street, the proposed landscaping and sidewalks along Watkiss Way and Erskine Lane will contribute in a positive manner.
ii.The exterior design and finish of new developments should be compatible with, and complementary to, existing housing in the neighbourhood. The design and finish of the proposed buildings is high quality and compatible with the existing neighbourhood through the use of complementary colours and materials.
iii. Buildings should express a unified architectural concept that expresses both variation and consistency. The building design and concept mixes variation and consistency to create visual interest.
iv. Materials should be durable and of high quality, reflecting the natural surroundings of View Royal and a “West Coast” design character, and bring in elements of wood, stone and a natural colour palette. Natural materials are preferred. The development proposes to use materials and a natural colour palette consistent with a “West Coast” design character.
v. Building design should promote “eyes on the street” for natural surveillance of the public realm through the provision of entrances, windows, patios, balconies, porches and decks facing public streets and spaces. Building A faces Watkiss Way to provide natural surveillance through windows, balconies, etc.
vi. Direct access to private outdoor space, some of it covered, should be provided for all units. Private balconies/patios will be provided for all units.
vii. Ground floor units in townhouses and multi-unit buildings should have individual front doors that are directly accessible and visible from the street. Ground floor units may be raised up to 0.6 metres (two feet) above grade to provide privacy for dwelling units. The buildings are not located close to the streets and the topography does not allow for this. Building entrances will be shared for safety and convenience purposes.
viii. All facades of residential buildings should be well designed, with consistent use of materials, windows, articulation and roof treatments. On corners and at intersections, both public frontages should present a consistent and visually appealing design. All facades are well designed with consistent use of materials, windows, articulation of roof treatments.
ix. Residential entrances should be visible from the street and emphasized with architectural detailing, glazing, colour or other defining features. Weather protection should be incorporated into the entrances of multi-unit buildings. Entrances are enhanced with an architecturally significant sloped canopy to identify their location.
x. Garage doors should not dominate the front elevation There are no garage doors on the elevations.
GUIDELINES – PUBLIC AND PEDESTRIAN REALM HOW IT COMPLIES HOW IT DOES NOT COMPLY
i. Streetscape design should incorporate treatments that enhance the pedestrian experience and create a sense of local identity. The proposed development will construct new, pedestrian friendly sidewalks along Watkiss Way and Erskine Lane.
ii. Streetscape should incorporate a continuous planting of irrigated deciduous street trees on both sides of the street where possible. Existing trees will be retained along the perimeter of the subject property.
iii. Where possible, corner and bus bulges should be incorporated into the streetscape design to enhance pedestrian crossings and provide space for landscaping and seating; We are proposing to pay for the upgrades to the intersection of Watkiss Way and Erskine Lane. Design details pending.
iv. Site and building design should incorporate the basic principles of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED). The design and layout of the proposed development incorporates elements of natural surveillance, access control, territorial reinforcement and maintenance.
GUIDELINES – SITING, HEIGHT AND MASSING HOW IT COMPLIES HOW IT DOES NOT COMPLY
i. Site design should respond to the topography and specific conditions of the site, and retain/work with existing grades and natural features such as rock outcroppings, mature trees and sensitive ecosystems such as Garry Oak meadow, riparian areas and shorelines. The proposal works with the existing site constraints including the topography and natural vegetation. Building footprints have been minimized to retain mature trees onsite.
ii. Residential development should be oriented towards the street, except where natural features (slopes, rocks, vegetation) prevent this configuration. Natural features (topography, rock) prevent with the exception of the building along Watkiss Way.
iii. Massing and siting of infill housing shall respect established neighbourhood patterns, including setbacks. N/A
iv. Create visual interest by providing variations in height, rooflines, massing. Rooflines and massing are varied to create visual interest.
v. Attempt to maintain important public views to natural areas and scenic vistas through careful siting, building design and landscaping. Buildings are sited to retain significant natural vegetation onsite.
vi. Building siting and placement of balconies, decks and windows should limit overlook and shadowing impacts on neighbours. Building placement and retention of mature trees limits overlook and shadowing.
vii. Buildings over two-storeys should utilize setbacks and/or terracing above the second level to reduce massing impacts on the street and surrounding neighbours, preserve view corridors and provide visual interest. The buildings are setback to minimize massing impacts on the street and neighbours.
