BURLINGTON, ON
The National Homes development at 484 Plains Road East will be the subject of a statutory public meeting on Monday August 7th.
Development along Plains Road in Aldershot has, for the most part, been in the six to eight story level. No soaring 20 storeys plus towers – yet.
The application relates to phase 2 of National Homes’ development currently underway on Plains Road. The application proposes some minor technical deficiencies required to facilitate an efficient built form and building design as well as a distribution of unit types over the phase 2 lands. The amendments include:
Adjusting the overall number of stacked back-to-back townhouse units from 110 to 81; a reduction in 29 townhouse units;
Increasing the number of residential condominium units in Phase 2 from 124 to 166 units; an overall increase from 277 to 319 units.
Through the proposed reconfiguration, the proposal also provides for a larger central amenity area, increasing the ground floor amenity from 600 square metres to 780 square metres.
No changes are proposed to any of the minimum parking requirements as well as the current front, side, and rear yard setbacks.
National Homes are in the process of completing their large development on Brant. They are a very tough outfit for citizens who do not like a development to deal with. Some of the ECOB members learned that the hard way.
The August 7 meeting will take place as part of a Special City Council meeting. The staff report will be available on the Burlington Council and Committee Calendar under the August 7 Special Council Meeting agenda (Item #6.1).
Located on Plains Road between Falcon and Sandford.
