Quote:The first requested amendment involves increasing the maximum front yard setback to 32.3 metres, a significant change from the current zoning, which permits a maximum setback of 10 metres for structures over 24 metres in height.

The second amendment seeks to increase the maximum side yard setback to 38.5 metres, whereas the current zoning allows for a maximum of 10 metres for structures over 24 metres.

Additionally, the developers are requesting a reduction in the rear yard setback to 1.8 metres, while the current requirement is a minimum of 14 metres.


Those ammendments are only for the now approved 44 floor building, the eventual 55 floor building will in no way be set back 32 meters from King. The only reason Vive needed those ammendments is the zoning bylaw is not designed around phased developments. If Vive were to have done the King building first they wouldn't have needed any of the setback ammendments.
