Land Development Administration Synopsis

In North Langford;

• Ecoasis has worked with BC Hydro and invested stake-holders to resolve the hydro restriction on the lands. This resolution is a measure to enable several years of development until such a time as the Hydro supply is provided via the Skirt Mountain development. Ecoasis is developing several multi-family sites as well as realizing some single family lot creation.
• Bear Mountain – Several areas of land that were part of the bank disposition have recently changed hands, and we anticipate development start-up within 2016.
• PCC Lands – largely built-out (Bellamy Link) excepting the lands between Selwyn and Redington Road.
• Skirt Mountain – Statement of Conditions have been issued for the first residential portion, and development consideration has been applied to the first multi-family site (both located off Road A; the first road located off Bear Mountain Parkway).

In South Langford;

• McCormick lands continue development, however the lands require a storm drainage route that at present cannot be enabled due to the agricultural lands and necessary ALC involvement.
• Latoria Road continues to be an area of development activity.
• Klahanie (at Latoria) – developments are starting to proceed, Statement of Conditions have been issued.

General;

• Water supply for emergency response (FUS) continues to be a factor of discussion.
  • Developers are aware due to the notice provided at various points during the development process, and problems are lessening. An area of concern continues to be the down-town core (north of Goldstream and bound by Matson on the west and Peatt to the east) and one other significant hurdles (that we are aware of);
    • 925, 927, 931 Walfred – CRD has notified us that FUS cannot be met at present. There is a lack of water available at the reservoir
  • The CRD is reviewing past work from the committee appointed by the WSDA (and incl. Langford) presently.
