On Monday night, Langley City Council addressed two housing redevelopment applications.
Council gave first and second reading to a rezoning bylaw to enable the construction of 10 new townhouses at 5080 & 5096 208 Street. This proposed project is "phase two" for a 26-unit townhouse complex just south, which received third reading of its rezoning bylaw last summer. The project applicant noted that they would be building both phase one and phase two at the same time if the Council grants final reading of the rezoning bylaws and issues development permits for these projects.

All the units in this proposed townhouse project will have double-wide garages and three-bedroom + flex room units.
This proposed project is subject to Langley City's Townhome & Plex-Home Best Practices Guide due to its locations along 208th Street. Council had a good discussion about outdoor space, such as yards, centralized greenspace within a project (when it should be provided), and access and applicant-funded enhancements to existing or new public parks and green spaces. This project will have direct access (via phase one) to Nicholas Park.
At the same meeting, the Council gave final reading of a rezoning bylaw and issued a development permit to enable the construction of a 5-storey, 132-unit apartment development at 20719-20731 Eastleigh Crescent. You can read more about this project in a previous post.
