Proposed Development Exceeds RM-1 Zoning

 WestUrban's proposed development does not appear to comply with RM-1 Zone bylaws.

Their development permit application confirms RM-1 Zone compliance, yet it proposes 4-storey apartment buildings with 2 levels of underground parking, and includes a height variance request to 16 metres.

• RM-1 Zone developments in Campbell River are typically one and two storey patio homes and townhouses, as documented by Save Simms Creek in the video below

• The zoning bylaws stipulate building height maximums: 

            RM-1 – 10 metres

            RM-2 – 15 metres  

• WestUrban's proposed height of 16 metres exceeds the stipulated building height maximums for both RM-1 and RM-2 Zone

Please continue to write letters to City Hall as this remains the most effective method to have our voices heard. It is important to ensure both WestUrban and the City fulfill their obligations of due diligence on this proposed project. You may wish to ask the City to:

• Acknowledge the proposed development does not comply with RM-1 Zone bylaws

• Strictly enforce the stipulations of RM-1 Zone bylaws
