Proposed Rezoning - 09-Z-7

The subject portion of Parcel E was zoned as R1-Residential Detached in June, 2008, to accommodate conventional detached lots. However, the developer has since expressed interest in rezoning the subject lands to accommodate “neo-traditional” residential development, and has requested that it be rezoned to DCD 11 – Direct Control District, Suburban Neo-Traditional. This special zone was established by City Council’s approval of Bylaw No. 2009-17 on April 6, 2009. It provides for neo-traditional development with a strong street orientation, including rear lane vehicular access, reduced front yard setbacks and frontages. The block to the immediate north of the subject lands was rezoned to DCD 11, concurrent with the establishment of the district. The applicant’s proposal would extend its application southward and to a larger portion of the Greens on Gardiner community. The surrounding land uses are proposed low-density residential development in all directions. View air photo of the subject property. (Note: Large file over 1 MB)

The review process

The City gathers comments from 'interested parties' including nearby residents or property owners, which it addresses in a report to the Regina Planning Commission.

Generally the role of the Regina Planning Commission is to recommend that City Council approve, usually subject to conditions, or deny the proposal. City Council then considers the recommendation of Regina Planning Commission and approves or denies the proposal.

Any person is free to address the Regina Planning Commission or City Council. If you wish to be kept informed about the date and time of these meetings, use the City's online Contact Us form to provide your contact information. (Be sure to include the name of this project in this form.)
