Help us rate these priorities in preparation for the next steps of the planning process. Total participants: 464 GRANDVIEW HEIGHTS NEIGHBOURHOOD CONCEPT PLAN AREA #3
Other Priorities “Most importantly, Surrey needs to improve walkability of neighborhoods to amenities. Surrey has not done well with this creating a city that requires cars which is the most unhealthy. We need better transit to connect out of the way residential neighborhoods with other services.” “Create an appropriate mix of single family and townhouses with “A disc golf course in a park in this area.” sufficient density to ensure cost of providing community services can be justified.” “Any new development initiative that gets considered seems to always negate roadside parking space. Good example is Clayton Heights. Homes get built with suites (legal or illegal) but not enough consideration is ever given to where will people park or where will “Ensure developers pay for infrastructure service vehicles park.” upgrades required and not Surrey tax payers.” “No more housing developments until schools have been built, especially another high school….” “Plan the neighborhoods properly, too much housing, and not enough doctors, dentists, daycares, grocery stores: these need to be in walking distance!” “Incorporating public art in common public spaces.” Q: Are there any other planning priorities you would suggest?

Total participants: 266 GRANDVIEW HEIGHTS NEIGHBOURHOOD CONCEPT PLAN AREA #3
Residential Concepts “The area should be single family and some townhomes/rowhomes. The amount of density should be driven by only having to provide one school in the area. Getting two school sites in this area will be prohibitive. Also, services and transit are not in this area so density should remain low. Higher density areas exist near 24th and 160th and in Area 2. This should be urban single family and townhomes only.” “Need to keep more large lots, rather than all tiny lots. Leave some space and trees. The roads cannot support more density so close to the all the current development. We are already short on schools, transit in the area. Roads all need widening to support the existing growth. Add more trails and walkways. Safer biking areas on the streets.” ‘Homes that allow for wheelchair/universal access for aging population. The 3 level townhouse with 2 flights of stairs don't “Density is far too high. High density does not fit in suit seniors and people who have mobility challenges.” with the existing 1 acre lots surrounding the NCP.” “Do not forget lower cost rental housing and starter homes for young singles and married with young families. We cannot afford to continue to force them out of our communities as Vancouver has done.” “There are lots of semi-detached and townhouse along the 24th corridor. And plenty of commercial. There is little or no need for it here.” Q: Example locations of potential housing types are illustrated above in Concept A & B, for discussion purposes. Given the ideas about where housing could be provided, do you have any additional comments about the location and type of housing for this neighbourhood?
