At its June 28th meeting, Council addressed several development matters.

Council gave first and second reading to a rezoning bylaw for a proposed 15-unit townhouse development located at 19665 and 19669 55A Avenue.

A significant part of this project is a proposed greenway between 200A Street and 53rd Avenue to make walking and cycling more convenient to access transit on 200th Street, the school, and the Nicomekl Trail System.

While the proposed apartment is not consistent with the current Official Community Plan, it will be in the new proposed Official Community Plan.

Langley City will schedule a public hearing for these two projects. I’ll post more about these projects after the public hearing.

Council gave third reading to a rezoning bylaw and amendment to the current Official Community to accommodate a 6-storey, 98-unit apartment with 4,200 sq. ft. of ground-level commercial space.
