Yorkton Council has approved a Discretionary Use application which proposes a Planned Unit Development for a third apartment dwelling at 364 Northview Road and 44 and 54 Allanbrooke Drive.
Council had sent the proposal to the public notification process at its April 8 meeting.
Michael Eger, planner with the City told Council this Monday Planning Services, "had phone conversations with two property owners along Neufeld Place."
Eger said these owners are hopeful that the reconfigured parking area will provide better drainage and will help to reduce on-street parking.
"One of the owners suggested that a "no parking" area be established near the intersections of Northview Road and Allanbrooke Drive and also Parkview Road and Allanbrooke Drive to help improve visibility," continued Eger. " This idea will be further evaluated with Engineering Services but should not hold up the Development Permit process."
The subject lands are zoned Medium Density Residential. The proposed development was considered under the Planned Unit Development provisions of the Zoning Bylaw, as construction of a third Apartment Dwelling will require all three buildings to be situated on a single parcel of land, sharing access, parking and amenity.
The proposed building would be three stories in height, consist of 29, two bedroom units and be constructed on the northeast corner of the existing properties. There are two existing Apartment Dwellings, each with 36 two-bedroom units. The existing buildings are on separately-titled lots but share parking amenities. The proposed development would provide for a total of 101 two-bedroom units on a single parcel of land. Each of the units will be marketed for rental accommodation only.
