- 2077 Garibaldi Way:
Large triangular parcel at the west terminus of Garibaldi Way. Significantly lower and relatively isolated from adjacent properties.
- Parcel bounded by:
Highway 99 to the northwest, the Aspen Court and Aspen Drive duplexes and triplexes to the south, &
the Wayside Condos to the east.
The Garibaldi Way approach is primarily comprised of single family
detached dwellings on both sides of the road.
The current zoning is RSE1 (Single Family Residential Estate One).
- allows for development of one large (465 m2) detached dwelling.
Discussion
- RZ1144 proposes a rental housing development:
three buildings 74 rental units underground parking Building massing addresses site context
- 3 storeys on each end and four storeys in the middle
- site elevation assists with reducing building height & massing
relative to the adjacent properties
All units would be employee occupancy and price restricted,
consistent with WHA eligibility criteria and requirements.
