Branthaven Homes – Proposed Townhouse Development at 2072, 2078, 2084, 2088, 2092, 2096, 2100 and 2102 Ghent Avenue
Rezoning Application (File 520-10/12) - submitted May 30, 2012
Branthaven Homes Fairview Inc. submitted a planning application to rezone lands at 2072- 2102 Ghent Avenue to permit a 58-unit townhouse development. The application proposes 2-storey townhouses around the perimeter of the site (30 units) and 3-storey back-to-back townhouses in the centre of the site (28 units).
Several technical reports and plans were submitted in support of the application. The reports have been prepared by the applicant’s consultants and have not been approved by the city. These reports can be accessed from the links below or from the site plan application links under item (2) where updated plans were recently submitted. All reports and plans are also available for public review in the Planning & Building Department.
The eight properties under application have an area of 1.19 hectares and are designated Residential-Medium Density in the Burlington Official Plan. This designation permits either ground or non-ground-oriented housing units with a density ranging between 26 and 50 units per net hectare. The properties are currently zoned RM1, H-RM1 and RM4. These zones do not permit townhouses so the applicant is requesting rezoning to a medium density zone to permit the proposed development.
Neighbourhood meetings to discuss the application were held June 25, 2012 and September 28, 2012. An information report will be presented at a public meeting before the Development and Infrastructure Committee of Council on December 3, 2012 and can be accessed at PB-73-12. A recommendation report on the application is anticipated in Winter 2013.
Site Plan Application (File 535-21/12) - submitted November 22, 2012
Branthaven Homes submitted a site plan application for the properties listed above in November that has been circulated to technical staff and will assist in reviewing the rezoning application. The plans submitted with the site plan application can be accessed from the links below and are available for review in the Planning and Building Department. A report on the site plan application cannot proceed until a decision has been made on the rezoning application.
