January 2023 Update
The District has received a preliminary development application for a proposed mixed-use development project at 3390 Marine Drive (east of the "Black Cat"). The site is permitted to be used for commercial and mixed uses (dwellings above commercial), however a rezoning is required for the proposal.
The applicant hosted a preliminary public information meeting on January 9, 2023 to present/discuss the preliminary development proposal with the local residents. In response to feedback that the applicant received from neighbours, the applicant revised the proposal and hosted a second public information meeting on February 3, 2023. Note: These were not District-led public consultations; they were hosted by the applicant.
The proposal may be considered under Official Community Plan policy 2.1.5, which aims to encourage mixed-use and live-work development on existing commercial-use sites District-wide.
This proposal has not been formally submitted as a rezoning application. Providing this project moves forward, the District will process the development application in compliance with the Development Procedures Bylaw that requires ongoing public consultation.
