Attached to and Forming Part of Bylaw #5243
Bella Vista West Neighbourhood Plan Plan Vernon Amendment Bylaw Number 5243,2010
Although the majority of existing development within the Bella Vista West
Neighbourhood Plan area is in single family format, as noted there are components of
ground oriented multifamily development. ln addition, larger undeveloped parcels offer
án opportunity for additional multifamily development that will add to the diversity of
housing types within the neighbourhood plan area. The creation of a variety of housing
types will assist in developing additional diversity within the neighbourhood.
Apartment housing development forms are also limited within the neighbourhood plan
area. Opportunities for additional apartment development are in the centre of the plan
area above Tronson Road and in the southwest portion of the plan area below Tronson
Road. Although topography in the plan area limits the opportunities to pursue apartment
housing, the addition of units in this form within the neighbourhood plan area will also
add to the diversity of the neighbourhood.
