For properties designated as mixed-use/commercial to strongly encourage retail or other pedestrian oriented commercial use on the main � oor.

Will include the revitalization of University Heights’ commercial core and includes a number of retail essentials, including a grocery store, pharmacy, and restaurants.

Encourage residential above the � rst � oor in all properties designated for mixed-use/commercial.

All rental homes will be above the ground � oor commercial to accommodate the growing need of local residents and students.

Promote a range of housing types, forms and tenures to support a diverse, inclusive and multigenerational community.

Rental homes will range from micro-suites to 3 bedroom homes with 10% (52) of all homes proposed at a� ordable rates.

The proposal intends to revitalize the existing shopping centre into new retail and employment opportunities, better public open space, improved circulation and much needed secured rental housing for the lifespan of the building.

Wesbild is proposing the following Community Amenities for the redevelopment of University Heights:

• 100% RENTAL All 528 residential homes will be secured as rental for the lifespan of the building.

• BELOW-MARKET RENTAL 10%, or 52 homes, proposed as part of the redevelopment will meet CMHC’s de� nition of “a� ordable” whereby rents of those homes will not exceed 30% of the median income for families within the Saanich region as de� ned by Stats Canada. The proposed mix of homes will be proportional to the overall mix throughout the redevelopment.

• AFFORDABLE HOUSING FUND To aid a local non-pro� t in achieving a deeper level of a� ordability within the region, Wesbild is proposing to make a $500,000 � nancial contribution to a District of Saanich a� ordable housing fund.

• MICRO HOMES A creative way to achieve a� ordability through home size and innovation. With liveable homes under 315 square feet, these thoughtfully designed homes will be more accessible at lower rental rates.

S I T E AC C E S SSITE ACCESS on Cedar Hill Road has been REDUCED by approximately 94% from the previous development plan. The current plan results in a right-in only entry at the Cedar Hill South Access with access to just pick-up/drop-o� spaces at the Cedar Hill North Access.

PA R K I N G981 residential & commercial PARKING SPACES (approximately 0.5 SPACES PER UNIT). Lower than bylaw resident vehicle parking supply is an important strategy to help the District reach its active transportation goals.

P E D E S T R I A NImproved public realm around development edges. Mid-block east/west pedestrian route through the site. ENHANCEDand ACCESSIBLE pedestrian circulation throughout the site, including stairs, ramps and elevators.

B I K E SNEW ENHANCED BIKE LANESon all street frontages. Bike repair stations and E-Bike charging stations located on site. Multiple BIKE RACKS located around the site for visitors; SECURE BIKE STORAGE rooms for residents and employees.

T R A F F I CSite will experience TRIP RATE REDUCTION, due to mixed-use advantages. More internal site trips are anticipated. Expected to increase vehicle tra� c by 40 WEEKDAY - 80 SATURDAY TWO-WAY TRIPS per peak hour (about 2.5%). This increase is anticipated to have negligible impact to tra� c operations.

The proposal includes signi� cant improvements to the area’s pedestrian, cycling and transit networks. The mixed-use plan leads to shorter average trips and more multi-purpose trips.

A HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE... Since 1981, Wesbild has been creating livable, environmentally responsible

homes, neighbourhoods, and community gathering places. A privately held real estate development company, Wesbild specializes in master-planned communities, shopping centres, industrial and golf courses. Each

Wesbild project has one thing in common: it is an inviting, thoughtfully designed place

that brings people together.

WESTWOOD PLATEAU in Coquitlam, BC.Home to 15,000 people in 4,500 units, this master planned community was the most ambitious in Canada at the time of its development. It includes two golf courses, schools, parks, trails, playing � elds and a neighbourhood shopping centre.

PREDATOR RIDGE in Vernon, BC.An award-winning golf resort community in Vernon, BC that features two 18-hole championship golf courses and luxurious resort facilities.

GIBSONS PARK PLAZA in Gibsons, BC.Under Wesbild’s ownership Gibsons Park Plaza was completely renovated including a new facade, improved parking lot, landscaping and an array of new tenants.

GARIBALDI VILLAGE in Squamish, BC.Developed by Wesbild, Garibaldi Village has 40,000 sq.ft. of retail space on the ground level, anchored by London Drugs and the BC Liquor Store, and 15,000 sq.ft. of second � oor o� ce space.
