On two or three standard lots or large single lots:(total site area over 5,820 sq ft and min. 60 ft frontage);
Combinations of small houses and/or duplexes•
RT-11 Small House / Duplex ZoneIn this zone, multiple small houses and/or duplexes can be developed on larger lots and assembled sites, while a duplex or single-family home can be built on smaller sites. This zone allows fl exibility for new housing types, while retaining the single-family character of the neighbourhood.
What can be built in the Small House/Duplex Zone?
Illustrative Examples of Character Building with Infi ll
Illustrative Examples of Duplex Development on a Single Lot or Smaller Sites [Sites less than 5,500 sq ft]
On a single lot:Less than 5,500 sq ft in size:
Duplex (with or without secondary suites)• Single-family house with or without secondary suite and/or • laneway house (only per RS-1 regulations)
Over 5,500 sq ft in size:2 principal buildings (houses) i.e. a duplex (with or without • secondary suites) at street, infi ll at lane
Pre-1940s character building:character buildings must be retained for small house/duplex • development on sites larger than 5,500 sq fta modest FSR increase (to 0.9) and the opportunity for 1 or 2 • family infi ll is off ered to encourage retention of character housing on smaller sites
Illustrative Examples of Small House/Duplex Development on 2 or 3 lots[Sites over 5,820 sq ft and min. 60 ft. frontage]
Special sites that abut a park or school, are corner sites or are double-fronting sites:
2 principal buildings (houses) i.e. duplex at street, infi ll at • lane

RM-7 Rowhouse/Stacked Townhouse Zone All applications for rowhouses and stacked townhouses will be subject to a design review. This is to ensure that the new housing types provide a good fi t with the existing neighbourhood.
While the guidelines do not prescribe a certain architectural style, they emphasize how new developments can be neighbourly and livable. They guide the development in form and massing. Rather than prescribing a list of acceptable materials, they focus on durability and sustainability.
Guidelines - Highlights (for rowhouses and stacked townhouses)
Examples of reduced massing of end units and upper fl oor

Orientation: All units should be oriented towards the • street through individual front entrances, porches, balconies and patios. Building massing should be reduced by stepping back • the top storey or enclosing it under a pitched roof. Rowhouse developments should use visual means to • separate units in order to avoid monotony and avoid the impression of one continuous building front.All dwelling units should have private outdoor space.• All dwelling units should have access to natural light • and ventilation (through two major exposures, i.e. windows or doors).Parking • for stacked townhouses should be provided in open carports or below ground (above-ground garages are discouraged). Rowhouses can have individual garages or open parking spaces at the lane.

Apartment Transition Zone:Rezoning PolicyThe Apartment Transition Zone runs north and south of Kingsway along the entire length of the Norquay Village Neighbourhood Centre. It serves as a physical transition between higher densities and mid-rise buildings on Kingsway and the adjacent ground-oriented lower density residential zones. Individuals will need to apply for new zoning to permit development.
Key development parametersThe housing form envisioned for this area is the 3-4 storey low-rise • apartment building.
Proposed developments will need to be compatible with the adjacent low-• density residential neighbourhood.
To provide more housing options, new developments should include a range • of unit sizes, including three-bedroom units.
What is a Rezoning Policy?
A rezoning policy guides staff and applicants in determining the future use, form and density on a site. In this case, the rezoning policy contains information on permitted densities, maximum building height, minimum frontage, etc.
The rezoning policy for the Apartment Transition zone will be in place until a new zone is drafted and adopted by Council.
What can be built in the Apartment Transition Zone?
On two lots:Minimum street frontage: 50 ft (15.2 m)• Maximum FSR (fl oor space ratio): 1.5 (1.75 for corner sites)• Max. Dwelling Unit Density: 180 per hectare• Building height: 45 ft (13.7 m) max. - 4 storeys• Underground parking•
On three or more contiguous lots:Minimum street frontage: 90 ft (27.4 m) • Maximum FSR (fl oor space ratio): 2.0• Maximum Dwelling Unit Density: 240 per hectare• Building height: 45 ft (13.7 m) max. - 4 storeys• Underground parking•
Single parcels less than 50 ft (15.2 m) in width will typically not be considered for rezoning unless the site is “orphaned”.
Examples of a traditional u-shaped apartment building with ample natural light and ventilation
9
Sustainable building practices must be demonstrated, • including natural cooling and ventilation and ample access to natural light.
Applicants will be required to make a rezoning application • with the City, and Community Amenity Contributions (CAC) will apply. Please refer to the public benefi ts boards for more detail.

Public Benefi ts Strategy
10
WHAT IS A PUBLIC BENEFITS STRATEGY?
A Public Benefi ts Strategy identifi es the needs of the new and existing popula-tion, assesses area services compared to City-wide service levels, estimates costs, and identifi es funding sources over a 30 year period. Facilities and services are then prioritized based on available fund-ing from developer contributions and City capital budgets. The Public Benefi t Strategy then guides future decisions on capital spending over the life of the strategy.
The new residential zones will add housing variety and new residents. The Public Benefi ts Strategy will help address the facilities and services needs of these new residents to create a highly livable and complete Neighbourhood Centre.
How Are Public Amenities Delivered?
Regional - (eg. schools, transit)Community Partnerships - (eg. community gardens, neighbourhood greenways)
City - (eg. parks, community centres, libraries, street improvements)
The following directions are summarized from the Norquay Plan....
• Provide a gathering space and a community service focus at the 2400 Motel site
• Ensure services are provided for seniors, children, immigrants and other vulnerable populations
• Add more childcare spaces
• Make Kingsway a community focus and a more attractive and pedestrian friendly area
• Connect Norquay with Slocan Park and Renfrew Ravine Park along a future “Ravine Way” Linear Park
• Improve and add to neighbourhood green spaces
• Seek opportunities for additional aff ordable and non-market housing
• Provide cyclist and pedestrian improvements to better connect important places
Theses directions were balanced against local and city-wide service levels, projected population increases and future service needs.

Norquay Village Open House13
1) RECREATIONAL, SOCIAL & CULTURAL FACILITIES/SERVICES
Assessment:
• Norquay is served by:
- Four community centres (Renfrew, Killarney, Kensington and Trout Lake), all renovated, expanded or rebuilt in 2000.
- Three indoor pools and two ice rinks.
- Three neighbourhood houses - Collingwood, Cedar Cottage and South Vancouver.
- Three libraries - Collingwood, Renfrew and Kensington.
• None of the community facilities are located within Norquay Plan boundaries.
• Two area facilities - the Collingwood Library and the Cedar Cottage Neighbourhood House are in need of renewal in the next 5-15 years.
Draft Directions: - Explore the options (uses, size etc.) for locating a multi-use facility on
the 2400 Motel site.
- Prioritize the renewal of existing facilities- the Collingwood Library and the Cedar Cottage Neighbourhood House.
Facilities and Services Assessment The City provides a wide range of core services
across communities. The City aims to provide a consistent level of service and adjusts it based on local needs and conditions.
The Norquay Plan directions for public benefi ts were assessed based on current service levels and future anticipated growth.
The following boards summarize this work and the draft Public Benefi ts Strategy.

3) HOUSING
2) CHILDCARE
Assessment:
Norquay has 120 (0-5 year) spaces and 150 after - school care • spaces (within 1500 m of centre).
A new 37 childcare centre (Terry Tayler Learning & Care Centre at • 2300 Kingsway) opened recently.
Additional childcare is needed across the City. The unmet demand • in Norquay is approximately 70 spaces for 0- 5 years (day-care) and 150 for 5 – 12 years (after school care).
Projected new population demand is between 60 and 80 additional • childcare spaces and 70 – 90 after school care spaces by 2041.
Draft Directions:
- Explore opportunities to increase childcare in Norquay, including as part of the redevelopment of large sites and in partnership with the Vancouver School Board.
Facilities and Services Assessment
Assessment:
Housing needs in Norquay and Renfrew-Collingwood are similar • to the City as a whole (eg. for non - market rental, secondary suites etc.)
There is slightly greater need for aff ordable family units compared • to the city-wide average.
New zoning will add more aff ordable ownership options and up to • 1,000 rental units in secondary suites and small lock-off suites.
Draft Directions:
- Target the 2400 Motel site for a non-market housing component.
- Reserve some of these non-market units for families.

5 PUBLIC REALM AND TRANSPORTATIONAssessment:
• Routes connecting key public places require improvement to facilitate walking and cycling.
• Ravine Way Linear Park (#1 on map) would create an important neighbourhood link and greenspace and assist in connecting city- wide and regional greenways ( eg. Still Creek).
• Constructing the Clarendon connector would improve transit, pedestrian routes and reduce short - cutting by vehicles.
• Special public places are lacking; public art could assist in creating a unique community character.
Draft Directions:
- Continue to Improve Kingsway with safer crossings and other pedestrian conveniences. (This work began in 2012).
- Pursue pedestrian/cycling improvements along identifi ed key routes.
- Construct the Clarendon Connector.
- Create a public realm plan focusing on place-making to help make Norquay a unique place in Vancouver.

Assessment:
Several areas do not meet the City target of having all • residents within 400 m of greenspace.
General Brock and Slocan Parks are large and well located but • not very functional.
Draft Directions:
4) PARKS AND PUBLIC OPEN SPACE
- Pursue creation of Ravine Way Linear Park including several pocket parks along its length.
- Renew/improve General Brock and Slocan Parks (eg. similar to Norquay Park improvements).
- Add outdoor space on 2400 Motel site; require smaller plazas on other major Kingsway sites.

1) Community Amenity Contributions (CACs)– Major developments on Kingsway and in the Apartment Transitional Area will be required to pay CACs to help fund new amenities in Norquay.
2) City-wide Development Cost Levies (DCLs) – are charged to all new development city-wide. DCLs are pooled across the city and allocated to major transportation, park, childcare and housing projects based on city-wide priorities. (Development in Norquay is projected to generate about $35 million in city-wide DCL revenues over 30 years).
3) Capital Plan - Funding from development is augmented by the City through its annual tax-supported Capital Budget. (Kingsway streetscape improvements recently completed were funded from the 2012 City Capital Budget).

Developing a Public Benefi ts Strategy
Recognizing that population growth and funding will occur over 30 years, the Strategy must be fl exible to take advantage of new opportunities and respond to changing conditions. Trade-off s may be required in the future to adjust to new community needs and available funding.
CAC funding from new development is anticipated in the next year or two. What do you think is the priority area for funding?

Next Steps
Upcoming Events
- Public Benefi ts Strategy at Council March/ April 2013
- New Zones Council Public Hearing April 2013
- Public Realm Plan Development Spring 2013
Creating a highly livable and complete community requires an engaged community working together with the City and other supporting agencies to help build community places such as community gardens, greenways and enhanced green streets.
A Public Realm Plan will be developed beginning this spring to identify special places and knit together the directions from the Plan and Public Benefi t Strategy in a more comprehensive way. We need you to get involved... Please stay tuned.
