STRATA CONVERSION
APPLICATION
su800429
Strata Conversion Application for Lot 3, D.L.71, Plan 18154,
OYD (4003 - 24rh Avenue) was reviewed with the following
comments:
. There is an existing single family dwelling on the
property with the applicant requesting to construct a
second single family dwelling on the same piece of
property for a family member. The applicant is
requesting that both dwellings be strata titled. lt was
confirmed that there is adequate room in back yard for
another house.
. The request fits with zoning and density for this area.
. The approving authority for strata conversions is the
local government or regional board, therefore City of
Vernon Council is the approving authority for this
application. lt was noted that City Council would not
support strata titles if there is a vacancy rate in Vernon
lower than 4 percent.
Moved by Annette Sharkey, seconded by Kara Kazimer:
THAT the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee
recommends Council support the Strata Conversion
Application submitted by Gurpal Dhaliwal for Lot 3, D.L. 71,
PIan 18154, ODYD (4003 -24'n Avenue),
CARRIED.
