3 Proposed Rezoning & Plan Amendment WHY IS THIS OPEN HOUSE HOSTED BY THE CITY? The City of Edmonton is here to get your feedback about the revised proposed rezoning and development that the applicant (Dialog) has submitted. WHAT IS ZONING? Each piece of land has a zone attached to it. Zoning places rules of what can be built and the types of uses on the property (eg: type of building, how high, use of building, etc). WHAT IS REZONING? It is the process of changing the rules for a piece of land from what it is and to allow different things. However, before something is rezoned many items need to be taken into consideration. WHO MAKES THE DECISION TO REZONE THE LAND? Rezoning can only be voted on and passed by your elected 13 City Council members.

4 Proposed Rezoning & Plan Amendment WHAT IS THE EXISTING ZONING? Currently zoned (CNC) Neighbourhood Convenience Commercial Zone and (RA7) Low Rise Apartment Zone CNC zoning allows services that serve the day-to-day needs of its neighbourhood residents such as: convenience stores, health services (e.g. dental offices), personal service shops (e.g. barbershops), professional services, and specialty food services (e.g. bakery) RA7 zoning allows for an apartment no more than 4 storeys in height. What Exists on the site now?: - Vacant space and a Bakery/Cafe (2 storeys in height)

5 Proposed Rezoning & Plan Amendment WHAT IS AN OVERLAY? An overlay is an additional set of land use rules that adds to and supercedes the current zones that apply to a specific area. Two Overlays that impact these properties are: Main Street Overlay - encourages and strengthens development of an area by providing visual interests, storefront displays and amenities for pedestrians along a main street (similar to Whyte Ave). Medium Scale Residential Overlay - ensures development is compatibile with the community and encourages a pedestrian friendly streetscape. 6 or more rowhouses (townhomes) 5 or more stacked rowhouses (dwellings that are either placed one on top of another or attached at either the rear or side). L
