Rezoning a Site in Strathcona
Pangman Developments
Challenge
Pangman Development faced significant challenges with their Strathcona site. The strict direct control zoning was economically unfeasible and kept the land undeveloped, and previous attempts to move the project forward had stalled.
Approach
Situate proposed an alternative to a direct control zone, instead rezoning to the RMh28 (Medium Scale Residential) zone, a more adaptable option that better fit the project’s financial and development goals. We worked closely with Pangman Development, and proactively engaged with the local community, gathering input and ensuring that commercial space was considered in the design.
Outcome
On July 2, 2024, Edmonton City Council unanimously approved the rezoning. This decision paves the way for an eight-storey residential building with approximately 160 units, contributing to the growth of the Strathcona neighborhood. The site is now poised for redevelopment, providing much-needed housing and addressing Edmonton’s housing shortage.
If You’re Building More Housing, You Deserve a Smooth Approval
Our cities need more housing, and we don’t think anything should stand in the way. Book a call and let’s map the fastest path to yes.
