Location: 6115 Highway 17A and a portion of 6005 Highway 17A

File Number: LU009175


The purpose of this application is to permit the consolidation of the property at 6115 Highway 17A and a portion of 6005 Highway 17A and redevelopment of the subject site for a 153-unit residential development with 138 apartment units and 15 townhouse units.

The following are the key aspects of this proposal:

  • Two apartment buildings with 58 and 80 units, respectively:
    • Six storeys, including under-building parkade;
    • 56 one-bedroom units ranging from 46 m2 (495 ft2) to 53 m2 (575 ft2) in size;
    • 80 two-bedroom units ranging from 77 m2 (832 ft2) to 82 m2 (881 ft2) in size; and
    • 2 two-bedroom plus den units each 135 m2 (1,456 ft2) in size.
  • A townhouse building with 15 townhouse units:
    • Three storeys, including under-building parkade; and
    • All units would have three bedrooms and be 125 m2 (1,350 ft2) in size.
  • A one storey amenity building with 234 m2 (2,519 ft2) of common indoor amenity space.
  • A one-level under-building parkade.

The architectural drawings, landscape plans and 3D renderings for the proposal are available to view under "Application Plans and Documents".

In order to facilitate the proposed development, the following are required:

  • Official Community Plan Amendment to change the land use designation for the development site in the Future Land Use Plan in Schedule A from Other Commercial (OC) to Multi-Unit Residential (MR).
  • Rezoning from Service Commercial (C4), Tourist Commercial (C3) and Comprehensive Development Zone No. 495 (CD. 495) to Comprehensive Development Zone No. 20 (CDZ20).
  • Development Variance Permit to vary Section 8.5.7 of "Delta Zoning Bylaw No. 7600, 2017" to allow tandem parking for 19 of the apartment units (total of 38 parking spaces) in an under-building parkade.
  • Subdivide a portion of 6005 Highway 17A and consolidate with 6115 Highway 17A to form one development site.

The applicant is also proposing to include an affordable home ownership program in this development whereby the owner would loan five per cent of the market value of the unit for 10 percent of the saleable units in each phase (15 apartment units total), or $503,500 in total contributions, whichever is greater. If the total amount of the loans provided under the program is less than $503,500 then the owner would be required to pay the difference to Delta. The 5 percent value of the loan would be secured by a mortgage registered against the purchased property and would be repayable by the eligible purchaser to the City of Delta after a 10-year term, or when the unit sells, whichever comes first. The revenue would go into a housing reserve fund for Delta's use. Details of the affordable home ownership program will be secured through a housing agreement bylaw.

This application was presented at a Public Hearing on June 28, 2022 and the Official Community Plan amendment, rezoning and housing agreement bylaws were given third reading at the meeting which followed. Once the applicant has completed the third reading conditions, the bylaws will be presented to Council for final consideration and adoption.
