DEVIATION FROM PLANS, POLICIES OR REGULATIONS • The applicant is seeking an amendment to the Anniedale Tynehead NCP to redesignate the subject site from High Density Cluster to Medium High Density. • The applicant is requesting variances to the east (front) and west (rear) yard setbacks and to increase the percentage of back-to-back townhouse units. • The applicant is proposing to vary Section B.6(b) of Part 4, "General Provisions" of the Surrey Zoning By-law to reduce the minimum indoor amenity space required before cash-in-lieu may be applied for a 29-unit townhouse development from 74 square metres to 0 square metres. RATIONALE OF RECOMMENDATION • The subject site is approximately 1-acre in size and is being developed in conjunction with neighbouring application No. 7920-0278-00 to the south and east, which is dedicating considerable open space consistent with the cluster designation in the Anniedale-Tynehead NCP. The proposed townhouse form of development is also consistent with the cluster designation in the NCP. • The applicant will provide a density bonus amenity contribution consistent with the Tier 2 Capital Projects Community Amenity Contributions (CACs), in support of the requested increased density. • The proposed townhouses achieves an attractive form, which utilizes high quality materials. • In October 2023, Council approved housekeeping amendments to the Zoning by-law No. 12000, which introduced new requirements for townhouse units in a back-to-back configuration. Back-to-back townhouses were limited to a maximum of 20% of all dwelling units on a lot, and the indoor amenity space requirement was increased from 3 sq.m per dwelling unit to 6 sq.m per dwelling unit for townhouse units in a back-to-back configuration (Corporate Report 2023 – No. R161). The subject application was in process with considerable site planning work already underway prior to these new requirements being introduced.
