Prince Rupert City Council approves development for 34-unit low-income housing
A 34-unit multifamily building designed for those in severe need of housing has had a development permit approved for the property located at 1300 Hays Cove Ave.
The City of Prince Rupert is applying in advance for permits as time frames are tight for project completion. According to the draft DVP in the city council agenda, the approval will also include a bylaw variance allowing the principal building height from 10 metres to 14 metres. The DVP will also allow only 28 parking stalls, six parking stalls less than the usually required one per unit, which in this case would have been 34.
The property is located on a bus route along Hays Cove Ave. which is within walking distance; it is near Conrad Elementary School. The Frederick St. 99 Special bus stop, which transports students to Prince Rupert Middle School and downtown to Pacific Coast School, is also close by. Pope noted in her report that several childcare centers are within walking distance.
