FROM:

RE:
Zoning Amendment - 1032 Rockcliffe Road

Rockcliffe Road), to facilitate a two-lot subdivision.

ITEM C. - 1.
Page 2 of 13
BACKGROUND:
Site Context:
The subject property is zoned RS1 (Residential Low Density One) and is designated by Official
Community Plan 1370 as LR (Low Density Residential). A single family dwelling is constructed on
the subject property. The surrounding pattern of development consists of single family
development.
Background & Proposal:
The application is proposing to complete a two-lot subdivision on the subject property. Given
that the lot width (13.9m) and size (410m2) of Proposed Lot A does not meet the minimum
15.0m width and 555.0m2 required in the RS1 zone, a rezoning to RS4 (Residential Low Density
Four) is required.
Regulatory Provisions:
The Low Density Residential policies of the OCP state that the Town of Oliver supports these
lands for single family dwellings, duplexes, secondary suites, carriage homes, accessory
structures, manufactures homes, parks, institutional buildings and neighbourhood commercial
uses. The proposed zoning amendment to create an additional single family lot is aligned with
this designation.
Development Statistics:
The following table outlines the proposed development statistics on the plans submitted with
the application:
Provision Current RS1 Zone RS4 Zone Proposed
Minimum Parcel
Size 555.0m2 350.0m2 410.0m2
Minimum Parcel
Width 15.0m 12.0m 13.9m
Minimum Parcel
Depth 27.0m 25.0m 29.5m
Analysis:
ITEM C. - 1.
Page 3 of 13
Support Zoning Amendment Bylaw 1380.25
Staff considers the zoning amendment to allow for the proposed development represents best
use of the land for the following reasons:
• The residential policies of the OCP speak to prioritizing residential growth an d infill
within the Town's boundaries over the extension of boundaries.
• The growth management objectives of the OCP speak to supporting efficient use of land
within the Town of Oliver's boundaries, including the infilling of vacant lots. The
proposal converts an underutilized portion of a property into an additional lot in a
desirable area, without changing the character of the neighbourhood.
• Although the proposed lot size of 410m2 is less than the neighbouring lots, adequate
space exists for the construction of a 2,200 ft2 single family dwelling within the required
setbacks. Furthermore, the proposal is the gentlest form of densification in an
established neighbourhood.
For the reasons listed above, Staff recommend that Zoning Amendment Bylaw 1380.25 be given
third reading and adopted.
Deny/Refer Zoning Amendment Bylaw 1380.25
Council may consider that an RS4 sized lot is not compatible with the surrounding
neighbourhood. If this is the case, Council should deny the zoning amendment. Alternatively,
Council may choose to refer the application back to Staff to work with the applic ant further.
REFERRALS:
The application was referred to various internal and external departments which no issues or
concerns raised.
PUBLIC PROCESS:
Notice of the March 14, 2022 Public Hearing was mailed to residents within 100.0m of the subject
property. A public notification sign was installed on the subject property and notice of the public hearing
was advertised in two editions of the local print newspaper.
COUNCIL REPORT/RESOLUTION HISTORY:
ITEM C. - 1.
