Date of Report: February 2, 2010
Report No.: DTS-10-041
Subject: Kehl Street-Donley Street Proposed Block Plan and City-
I nitiated Zone Change
RECOMMENDATION:
For information.
BACKGROUND:
As a follow-up to Report DTS-09-145 (see attached), Staff met with directly affected property
owners on October 7, 2009 and December 9, 2009 to present a range of preliminary
development options for the undeveloped portions of land in the immediate area (see attached
Location Map). Of the eight (8) development options presented, property owners generally
preferred the option where the City offers guidance to facilitate the construction of Donley Street
to Kehl Street. As a result, in an effort to encourage coordinated future infill development in this
area, staff are proposing to develop a Block Plan accompanied with aCity-initiated zone
change, to guide future subdivisions of land in the immediate area.
REPORT:
The Block Plan for the subject area will reflect the general vision and intent of the development
option which was preferred by the directed affected property owners. ACity-initiated Zone
Change is being proposed to limit future development on land which will be utilized for the future
extension of Donley Street to Kehl Street.
Staff have developed a tentative project timeline as outlined below.

Report To: Development and Technical Services Committee
Date of Meeting: October 5, 2009
Submitted By: Jeff Willmer, Interim General Manager of Development and
Technical Services
Prepared By: Garett Stevenson, Planning Technician
Ward(s) Involved: 5
Date of Report: September 28, 2009
Report No.: DTS-09-145
Subject: Kehl Street / Donley Street Progress Update
RECOMMENDATION:
For information.
BACKGROUND:
After considering Report DTS-09-094, regarding potential surplus properties, at the Committee
and Council meetings of June 22 and June 29 2009 Council deferred consideration of the Kehl
Street property to October 5, 2009, to allow staff to dialogue with area landowners to explore
options for use of the property.
REPORT:
Staff have prepared a preliminary list of development options for undeveloped lands in the
immediate area (see attached map). A meeting with directly affected property owners is
scheduled. Following that meeting it is expected that the range of alternatives will be narrowed
and more detailed cost estimates and feasibility analysis will be prepared. Then a broader
community engagement process may be undertaken.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
None at this time.
COMMUNICATIONS:
None required at this time.
CONCLUSION:
Staff will report back as the community engagement proceeds.
