Developer Commitments

1. General Aesthetic: Commit to ensuring that housing will be developed with a high degree of architectural consideration. 2. Continuous Monitoring & Review: Commit to addressing design and building issues and concerns, if any arise. 3. Parking: Support the City’s desire to limit front attached zero lot line housing to one side of the street, along with the application of parking restrictions along that side. On-street parking will be permitted on blocks with lane access zero lot line product. 4. Encroachments: For single detached dwellings, ensure that utility meters are located on the same side of the houses, within their own property. For semi-detached units, cross lot easements will be utilized to locate the utility meters for both units in a banked location on one side of the pair of units. 5. Lot Depth: Increase the minimum lot depth from 30m to 33.5m to allow for more building and yard space in each lot. 6. Footing encroachment and foundation construction: Endeavor to sell groupings

  • f

continuous lots to builders to incentivize builders to track build as much as possible. 7. Increased Education: Provide resources and educational material to prospective homeowners in an effort to reduce potential conflicts resulting from misunderstandings related to side yard easements and homeowner rights.

Summary

Zero Lot Line Housing is already being established as a more affordable single family housing option throughout the region and

  • ffers several advantages, including:
  • Achieving density targets set out by the EMRB Growth Plan by

establishing higher density single-family housing;

  • More efficient use of developable land which, in turn, helps

reduce sprawl and increase affordability;

  • More

efficient use

  • f

infrastructure, reducing long term maintenance costs; and

  • Allows a municipality to remain competitive for home builders in

the regional market.
