Miramar back up

A public hearing on amendments proposed for the final two towers of Bosa Properties’ four-tower Miramar Village will go ahead May 9, following council support for the changes.

White Rock politicians voted unanimously Monday to give first and second reading to a bylaw that would amend the town-centre project’s zoning to accommodate an increase in the number of residential units; a reduction in the units’ sizes; a reduction in the commercial floor area; an increase in residential parking spaces; and a reduction in the project’s overall lot coverage.

Changes to height, total floor area and overall design theme were not proposed for the 15177 Thrift Ave. phase.

The amendments were endorsed last week at the land use and planning committee. Proponents hope to begin construction of the towers next spring.

The May 9 public hearing will be held in city council chambers, at 15322 Buena Vista Ave., prior to the regular council meeting.
