the full contruction cost estimate and the design cost included in the project cost? How in-depth are you looking for this? A high-level estimate of construction costs that exclude land costs and any soft costs are all we require. After the deadlines for all question rounds (1 and 2) will an addendum be sent out to all registered applicants to be made aware of asked/answered questions or is this only shared amongst those who asked the questions? The questions submitted and the answers will be posted on our competition website and an email will be sent to all registrants notifying them that they have been posted. When the dwelling allowable units' states for example: Min 4. Max 8 - does this mean one development but separate attached units? Like a 4 plex development for instance? Like a Multi-Unit Development/Townhouses? All units on the lot must be fully attached. When there are multiple residential buildings on a lot it is considered a Planned Group, which is a Discretionary Use in most applicable circumstances. Is there any specific zoning bylaw to determine if the units are feasible to be detached or if attached is a requirement to meet the density/coverage limits. All applicable zoning regulations can be found in the Zoning Bylaw. Please clarify the submission package formatting. In the landscaping plan inclusions, does “elevations (for all cardinal directions)” mean that we are to have all 4 exterior elevations of the units on the drawing itself? We are asking for 4 exterior elevations (one for each compass direction) to be included in the submission set. Placement within the submitted documents and the scale of each elevation is at the discretion of the submitter. Does the landscape plan need to be a separate document/ drawing sheet? It is up to the participant whether the landscaping plan is separate or combined with other drawings such as a floor plan. Does the building mass drawing need to include the footprint of the building in plan view on the landscape drawing showing the building footprint, overall size and placement? Typically, the massing drawings would be in an isometric view. Including other elements in the massing drawings is up to the submitter. Round 2 Will schemes be docked points for not providing onsite parking (i.e. what metrics will be used when scoring schemes that do and do not provide onsite parking)? While our zoning bylaw has moved away from parking minimums to suggested parking ratios, the #1 objection from residents the city receives towards missing middle housing and intensification relates to inadequate parking. Design concepts that can accommodate a 1:1 parking ratio (1 parking space per unit) on the site will score higher. If a strong rationale is presented for providing less than the suggested ratio, it may be weighed more favourably during the review process. For this competition, will two or more residential buildings (i.e. accessory dwelling units, multi-duplexes, etc.) be allowed on each lot? If not, it appears that this may significantly limit the development opportunities of each site. In an effort to explore all potential options for each site, we have revised our position stated in question 9 from the first-round responses and are now accepting proposals for multiple buildings on each lot. Is there a preferred approach for collecting garbage? Regina utilizes three bins for the home collection service. Blue bins are for recycling; Brown bins are for waste, and green bins are for compost. On lots with an alley, pickup is in the alley. On lots with no lane access, the bins are rolled onto the street for pickup on the designated day. Consideration should be given to accommodating the three bins on site. Is a basement allowed? Yes, full-height concrete basements are very common in Regina. We encourage participants to explore the potential of these spaces. Is it possible to incorporate social activity spaces for the residents, for example, designing the roof as a social gathering space used by the residents according to a schedule or for small rent fees? Yes, we encourage the exploration of such ideas. ...
