Thanks, S_____! I don't know if you have access to or renderings but the building "reads" as a four-storey project albeit we do have 2 partial floors terraced back from the main facades. The overall height of the building (even with the top two floors) will be at the approximate height of the building right next door (Lion's Cove) so I am very confident the building will blend in very suitably with the existing and future context.

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any further questions or if you don't have access to the renderings.

We really appreciate your support!!!!

Thanks Timothy, my initial question is regarding the proposed height of the building, how many stories are currently being planned? I’m happy to see the next phase of redevelopment of this intersection, the vision as I understand it has long been for the area to become the equivalent of a village centre. Increasing foot traffic and a sense of community whilst simultaneously shifting away from the growing feeling of Craigflower/ Helmcken being a secondary highway would be positive.

Thanks for your time, S_____

Hi, S____!! Thank you so much for your email and your interest on this project! Now that we are directly connected you can ask me any questions or raise any concerns you might have.

Regarding public input from a municipal level we are hoping for this project to be brought forth to Council in the coming weeks. That is the formal forum for you to voice your support or concerns.

Now that we have your contact information we will be sure to notify you when the Public Hearing is scheduled but again - in the interim please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this exciting project!!

Thank you so much for your email and interest in this project, C____!! We are very familiar with the parking issues surrounding the site. To that end, we are proposing 19 surface parking stalls behind the neighborhood grocery store, and 2 levels of underground parking which includes additional parking for the grocery store employees, visitor parking for the residential units, and ample parking for the residential units themselves.

If you have any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me directly!!! Again thank you!!

Hello. I'm wondering about parking arrangements for this development. As neighbours, we have a big problem with the development across the Old Island Highway from there: cars parking in no parking areas, on boulevards, and on yellow lines. What provisions will be made to avoid this in your proposed development?

Thank you. C_______________
