Why Zoning Changes Are Being Considered Here

The site is located along 83 Street, an arterial road, and next to the Avonmore LRT Station. It is also close to other transit options such as bus routes, as well as schools, parks, and everyday services.

City policy supports accommodating more housing in well-connected locations like this. However, the current Small Scale Residential (RS) zoning limits the amount of housing that can be built on the site.

This application proposes to rezone the property to Small-Medium Scale Transition Residential (RSM h14), which would allow for a slightly larger building than what is currently permitted.

Project Contact

Rezoning applications can raise questions, especially early in the process. Our role is to help explain what’s being proposed, what is not being proposed, and how decisions are made. If you have questions about this application, you’re welcome to reach out.

What This Rezoning Would Change

We are proposing to rezone the site to the Small-Medium Scale Residential (RSM h14) zone, which would provide more housing choice in Avonmore and allow for modest increases in density directly next to the Valley Line LRT.

Zone

The RSM h14 zone allows for a range of small- to medium-scale residential development. It is intended to accommodate additional homes in a way that blends with nearby small-scale residential buildings.

Heights & Homes

Under the RSM h14 zone, buildings up to 14.0 metres in height are permitted. This typically allows for larger three-storey buildings, or in some cases four storeys depending on the design. Common building forms in this zone include row housing and low-rise apartments.

Landscaping & Transitions

Any future development would be required to include landscaping such as trees, shrubs, and other soft landscaping, along with appropriate setbacks and building design measures to help the development fit comfortably with nearby streets and properties.

Project Stage

Rezoning is the first step in the land redevelopment process, followed by design, permits, and construction.

We're at the very first stage of the project. We have submitted a rezoning application for this site in March 2026 to rezone to the RSM zone.
