Currrent Land Use

Proposed Land Use
Direct Control (DC) District, based on the Multi-Residential – Contextual Grade-Oriented (M-CG) District
Local Area Plan
The project site is located within the City of Calgary community of Arbour Lake, which does not yet have a Local Area Plan (LAP) in place to provide development guidance for the subject site. In the absence of an LAP, the project team looks to contemporary higher order plans like the Municipal Development Plan (MDP) and Calgary Transportation Plan (CTP).
Transportation Impact Study
To better understand the traffic and parking impacts of the proposed development, the applicant team worked with transportation engineers, Bunt & Associates, to complete a transportation study that takes into account traffic from nearby schools. This study found that the surrounding road infrastructure will continue to operate acceptably and below City of Calgary capacity thresholds, and there are walking, cycling, and transit options nearby. The proposed parking supply of 32 parking stalls for 16 dwelling units and 16 secondary suites exceeds the requirements of the proposed base M-CG District, and the parking supply is aligned with the parking requirements of the surrounding R-CG designated parcels.
Concurrent Development Permit
A concurrent Development Permit, DP2024-05929, for 8860 85 ST NW, has now been submitted alongside the proposed Land Use Redesignation, LOC2024-0186. The concurrent process allows the community to review and provide input on the building design alongside the proposed land use change.

The project team will be undertaking a meaningful and comprehensive outreach process in support of this application to ensure a clear and transparent process for all interested parties.
