EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
BFW Developments (Willoughby) Ltd. is proposing to rezone approximately 26.22 ha (64.8
acres) of land in the Southeast Phase of the Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan area to Residential
Compact Lot Zones (R-CL(A), R-CL(B), R-CL(RH)) and Comprehensive Development Zones
(CD-65) and (CD-66). The rezoning will facilitate a comprehensive residential development
consisting of approximately 236 fee simple single family lots, 45 single family condominium
strata units, 58 rowhouse lots and up to 315 townhouse units. The application is the first
development proposal in the Southeast Phase of Yorkson and triggers the need for the
proponent to provide an overall layout plan, elementary school and neighbourhood park sites, a
community stormwater detention pond site and municipal trunk services for the Southeast
Phase. A Development Permit for the site is being processed in conjunction with the rezoning
application to secure an exterior design control agreement for the R-CL(A) and R-CL(B) zoned
lands at the time of subdivision. A future Development Permit (yet to be applied for) will provide
Council with the opportunity to review the form, character and siting of the townhouse,
rowhouse and the stratified single family unit components of the development. The
development application fully complies with the Willoughby Community Plan and the Yorkson
Neighbourhood Plan. Final reading of the rezoning bylaw is contingent upon completion of the
eleven (11) development prerequisites outlined in this report.
PURPOSE:
This report is to advise and make recommendations with respect to the initial
Rezoning/Development Permit application in the Southeast phase of the Yorkson
Neighbourhood of Willoughby submitted by BFW Developments (Willoughby) Ltd.

BACKGROUND:
The subject site is the initial development proposal in the Southeast Phase of the Yorkson
Neighbourhood Plan and as a result triggers Yorkson Plan requirements for ‘opening’ a
development phase. The subject site is currently zoned Suburban Residential Zone SR-2
(8094m2 / 2 acre minimum lot size) and is designated ‘Mixed Residential’ (8-10 units/acre) and
‘Townhouse’ (15-25 units/acre) in the Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan. The applicant proposes to
rezone the entire site and phase the development through subsequent subdivision applications
for the fee simple lots and Development Permits for the townhouse units.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The proponent has applied to rezone 26.22 ha (64.8 acres) of land located in the Southeast
Phase of the Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan to Residential Compact Lot Zones (R-CL(A), R-
CL(B), R-CL(RH)) and Comprehensive Development Zones (CD-65) and (CD-66) to
accommodate a comprehensive residential development consisting of approximately 236 fee
simple single family lots, 45 single family condominium strata units, 58 rowhouse lots and up to
315 townhouse units. Included in the development proposal is the dedication of approximately
5,160m2 (16,792ft2) of greenways and a DFO mandated fisheries compensation area.
Density:
The Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan designates the site as “Mixed Residential” and “Townhouse”.
The plan permits a minimum 20 units/ha (8 units/acre) and a maximum of 25 units/ha (10
units/acre) for the “Mixed Residential”; and a minimum of 37 units/ha (15 units/acre) and a
maximum of 62 units/ha (25 units/acre) for the “Townhouse” portion of the site. The current
proposal satisfies the density requirements of the updated Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan. The
“Mixed Residential” portion will result in a gross density of 9.1 units per acre. Final densities
(within the 15-25 upa range) for the “Townhouse” portion will be determined through future
Development Permit applications. Overall, it is expected that the townhouses will be a phased
development resulting in up to a total of 315 units. Overall, the proposal meets the density
requirement of the Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan.

Universal Housing:
Universal design are those home design features that make a home safe and
comfortable for everyone, young or old, whether they have a disability or not. It’s
making a home for all ages. Examples include cabinets with pull-out and kitchen
counters at several heights to accommodate different tasks and postures.
School Sites:
The Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan states that “The following general prerequisites must be
satisfied prior to the adoption of a rezoning bylaw in any phase:
a. the designated elementary school site indicated for that phase, whether it is located in that
phase or not, must be secured to the acceptance of the School District, subject to Sections
8.2.6 and 8.2.7;…”
The proposed development falls within the Southeast Phase of the Yorkson Plan. The five acre
elementary school site for this phase is located on lands within the proposed development. The
Township and the School District are currently working with the proponent to find a means of
securing the school site. Prior to final reading the elementary school site must be secured to the
acceptance of the School District.

The Yorkson Neighbourhood currently falls within the Willoughby Elementary School catchment
area (located on the southwest corner of 208 Street and 80 Avenue one block to the west of the
subject site). In the short term, elementary students from the proposed development are
expected to attend Willoughby Elementary School which has some capacity available. Yorkson
students will attend it until sufficient numbers are generated to construct additional Yorkson
Elementary schools.
Another secondary school site to serve the Willoughby neighbourhoods is yet to be pursued as
capacity exists at Mountain Secondary School. An expansion to Mountain Secondary is in the
School District’s capital plan. Yorkson secondary school students will be expected to attend
Mountain Secondary.
b. the designated neighbourhood park site indicated for that phase, whether it is located in that
phase or not, must be secured to the acceptance of the Township, subject to Sections 8.2.6
and 8.2.7;…”
The proposed development falls within the Southeast Phase of the Yorkson Plan. The required
five acre park site for this phase is located on lands within the proposed development. The
proponent and the Township are currently working towards securing the neighbourhood park
site. Prior to final reading the neighbourhood park site must be secured to the acceptance of the
Township.
In addition to the playing fields and playground equipment located one block west at Willoughby
Elementary School, the existing Willoughby neighbourhood park (located at 84 Avenue and 206
Street) is approximately 1.5 kilometers from the subject site.
Development Permit:
All of the Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan area is designated as a mandatory Development Permit
area in the Willoughby Community Plan. Applicable is “Development Permit Area ‘B’ –
Residential” which establishes objectives and guidelines for the form, character and siting of
development. The primary objective of the development permit area designation is to
encourage the development of attractive and safe residential areas and reduce conflict with
adjacent land uses. Attachment A of this report details the specific development permit area
guidelines outlined in the Plan.
For the fee simple single family residential lots, the Development Permit guidelines are
implemented by a Development Permit requirement that the proponent enter into an exterior
design control agreement at the time of subdivision. The exterior design control agreement
typically addresses the form, character and siting of individual single family homes constructed
in a development.

Developments (Willougby Ltd).doc
REZONING APPLICATION NO. 100265
DEVELOPMENT PERMIT NO. 100460
(BFW DEVELOPMENTS (WILLOUGHBY) LTD.)
Page 12 . . .
For the townhouses, rowhouses and stratified single family condominium units, the
Development Permit guidelines are enforced through future Development Permits. As a result,
Council will have an opportunity to review the form character and siting of each development
prior to building permits being issued. The Development Permit typically details the form and
character of each development including siting, access, parking, landscape, tree
protection/replacement, building materials, colours, building elevations and other site
development items. As a condition of final reading the proponent must register a restrictive
covenant restricting development of the rowhouse lots until a Development Permit is issued.
Greenways:
As part of the project, the applicant will be required to dedicate and construct street greenways
(including a pathway and landscaping) along the 80 Avenue, 211 Street and 212 Street
frontages as identified in the Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan. Forming part of the overall
neighbourhood greenway network, the proponent in total will be dedicating approximately
5,160m2 (16,792ft2) of greenway. Details of the open space improvements (i.e. required
landscaping and fencing including the treatment/ construction of the greenways and municipal
trails) will need to be finalized to municipal standards to the acceptance of the Manager of Parks
Design and Development prior to final reading of the rezoning bylaw. As a condition of final
reading the proponent will be required to transfer title of the greenways to the Township and
secure their construction as part of a Servicing Agreement.
The Yorkson Plan previously secured greenways by means of a Bonus Density provision where
an increased density would be permitted when additional public green space was provided.
Instead of bonus density the updated Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan implements an “amenity
charge” collected on all developments within Yorkson. Those developments that dedicate land
for public open space (i.e. greenways) will be subject to the requirements of the Yorkson
Greenway Amenity Zoning Policy. Prior to final reading details with respect to compensation
will need to be finalized.

Transit:
Transit has not yet been extended into the Yorkson Neighbourhood. The road layout of the
overall Yorkson development has, however, been designed to accommodate the provision of
future transit routes in accordance with Translink’s operating policy/procedures. Each year
Translink provides Council with the opportunity to input/comment on transit routes in the
Township. Initially, transit is expected to utilize the 208 Street corridor; one block to the west.
Environmental:
The Township’s Streamside Protection Bylaw along with DFO Section 35 (HAAD) approval
requirements apply to this development. As part of the updated Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan
review a number of watercourse and drainage ditches were identified. The Township is working
with DFO in the preparation of an overall environmental protection/compensation plan for the
Southeast Phase and the remaining properties within the Northeast Phase. Acceptance of this
plan by DFO and other items listed in the development prerequisites are required prior to final
reading. Final DFO Section 35 (HAAD) approval will require BFW to provide an environmental
compensation adjacent to 81A Avenue.
The Township’s Environmentally Sensitive Areas (E.S.A.) Study identifies the lands as forming
part of the Willoughby and Willowbrook area. As part of the required Servicing Agreement, the
applicant will be required to provide full urban services as well as a stormwater management
plan and sediment control measures. The provision of these items in concert with Department
of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) requirements and compliance with the Township’s Tree
Protection Bylaw satisfy the management guidelines identified in the Township’s
Environmentally Sensitive Areas Study.
Servicing:
Servicing of the Yorkson Neighbourhood was reviewed by the Engineering Division as part of
the recently completed Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan update process. The development site
will, prior to final reading, be required to provide full municipal services and enter into a
servicing agreement in accordance with the Township’s Subdivision and Development Control
Bylaw. The servicing agreement will include all municipal road and utility upgrades/extensions
and a stormwater management plan including sediment control measures in accordance with
the Sediment and Erosion Control Bylaw. As the applicant is proposing to phase the
development, a restrictive covenant will be required to be registered, prior to final reading,
restricting development of each phase until a servicing agreement is entered into for that phase.
This will enable detailed servicing requirements to be dealt with on a phase by phase basis.
Prior to final reading the proponent is required to provide a storm water management plan for
the Southeast Phase as delineated on Map 4 of the amended Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan.
Also required will be the transfer to the Township of an adequately sized community stormwater
detention pond to service the Southeast Yorkson Phase, to the acceptance of the General
Manager of Engineering. The proponent may also choose to enter into a Development Works
Agreement (DWA) with the Township (similar to a latecomers agreement) dealing with the
recover of some front-ended servicing costs. In this case, a DWA is proposed by the applicant
for the stormwater detention pond serving all of the Southeast Phase. Completion of the DWA
will be required prior to final reading of the rezoning bylaw.
