  • I think these types of developments are an imperative not just for Woodcroft but for the entire city. As our population grows, we need to be conscious of the costs associated with that growth. Every time we build a new subdivision it costs the tax payer an obscene amount of money for things we already have in these older undeveloped neighbourhoods, for example. Paving new roads, Sewer and drain Infrastructure, Streetlights, Public transit, Snow removal, Police coverage, Ambulance coverage, Fire department Coverage, Schools, Hospitals, Libraries, Community centres, Public sporting facilities There're also the environmental impacts to consider, if everyone needs to drive 30 minuets to get to work because they live in a suburb outside of the Henday what will this do to our air quality. So I’m in favour of this application.

  • What are the plans for parking? I do not agree with the parking requirements the city has recently adopted. The plan must accommodate a minimum of 1.5 stalls per unit.

    Thank you for your question.


    On June 23, 2020, City Council approved Open Option Parking, which provides developers’ flexibility to choose the amount of parking that they feel is appropriate for their projects.  The parking supply for this project will accordingly be determined at the development permit stage. It’s important to note that this approach to parking doesn’t necessarily mean that no parking will be provided.  It is actually more likely to result in the “right” amount of parking as developers know the parking needs of their potential customers better than the City and have an interest in ensuring they are met.

  • I would like to see a taller building with commercial storefronts on the main floor. I would like something like a neighborhood pub. Is something like that included?

    Thanks for your question!

    The maximum height in the RA7 zone is 14.5 m for flat, mansard and gambrel roofs, or 16.0 m for a roof type with a pitch of 18.4 degrees or greater (approximately 4 storeys).


    Bars and Neighbourhood Pubs are not allowed in the RA7 zone. The RA7 allows a small number of lower impact commercial opportunities including retail stores, health services, and specialty food services, among others.
