DEVELOPMENT OVERVIEW
2100 Creek Street has undergone several years of planning and preliminary pre-development works in anticipation of a multi-family, medium density project. Completed works include rezoning, site servicing analysis, site grading/access and preliminary layout of building envelopes and project scale analysis. The Property was rezoned in 2013 and a restrictive covenant (RC) was applied to the property limiting total development to 12 residential units due to site constraints and surrounding low-density residential development. The general requirements of the R2 zoning indicates that without the restrictive covenant the development lot would permit up to 24 units (60 units per hectare), however, the removal of the RC would be contingent on an application to the City. Since the rezone, and particularly under the current City Council, the City has supported and promoted increased density throughout Nelson including within historically low-density residential areas. Furthermore, the City has relaxed parking requirements on a number of projects in support of the densification strategy. Site services including water, sewer, storm, and power are either within the development parcel or at the lot line. Costing estimates, a geotechnical study and preliminary architectural designs for the two fourplexes are all available upon request.
