1 welcome! BINVNU! INTRODUCTION The purpose of this information meeting is to provide you, the community members of North St. Boniface, with information about an upcoming mixed use project. The development s proposed location is on Taché Avenue between Rues Darveau and Hébert, on a site formerly used as a City of Winnipeg maintenance and storage yards. This land, as sold to Sunstone Resort Communities from the City of Winnipeg, is currently comprised of a number of lots, portions of lots and a portion of a public lane. lease take the time to read our presentation illustrating our development design criteria and project information. If you have questions or comments, feel free to fill out a comment card. Need more information? Visit our website at 85Tache.com and sign up to our mailing list for updates.

2 location & CONTXTUAL CHARACTR Retail / Commercial Institutions (schools, libraries etc.) Cultural DVLOMNT CRITRIA: North St. Boniface Secondary lan Located on the river side of Taché Avenue, a few blocks north of rovencher Boulevard, this project responds to the urban form and land use elements and objectives set forth in the North St. Boniface Secondary lan and those present in surrounding community. The following paragraphs describe how the project complies with the lan and the current surrounding land uses: ZONING The site is made up of a number of parcels that are presently zoned for industrial uses. The lan recommends re-zoning these lands to a residential use to match the surrounding land uses. We are proposing to change the zoning to RMU (Residential Mixed Use) to allow for both residential and commercial uses on the property. Additionally a portion of the land will be re-zoned R- (ublic Reserve) to accommodate the park space and trail at the river. DNSITY This site is a rare under-developed site in North St. Boniface. Our project meets the increased density objective set out in the lan that will help to support the local St. Boniface retail and commercial sector. This proposal will add 80 residential units and live/work units in total to the area.

One seven (7) storey residential apartment-style condo building containing 78 units and underground parking located along the Red River at Taché Avenue and Rue Hébert;. Two, two () storey mixed-use buildings each containing one commercial unit and one residential unit on Taché Avenue and Rue Darveau; and, 3. One two () storey split level duplex building containing two residential units on Taché Avenue.

4 sitedsign Artist s rendering of Taché Avenue including existing home INFILL DVLOMNT The development aims to provide urban infill in a residential setting in two different ways: Firstly, by providing increased density with a seven storey multifamily building positioned at the rear of site along the banks of New and old housing on Rue Hebert the Red River; and, Secondly, at the street edge of Taché Avenue, by infilling the streetscape gaps and curb cuts with three new two storey buildings, two of which will have potential to incorporate local commercial uses on the main floor, as well as residential on the second floor. Street front buildings will be home scaled xisting trees and river trail and similar in character to the changing mix of new infill homes and traditional housing stock in the immediate area. By utilizing the rear access drive aisle and infilling streetscape gaps the Taché Avenue street edge is re-established in a pedestrian friendly and context sensitive way. The small scale mixed-use residential /commercial buildings Multi-Family development on Taché Avenue can potentially provide limited amenities such as office space, convenience store or small-scale retail shops to residents of the North St. Boniface neighbourhood as well as function for any future commercial uses that could be advantageous if the adjacent rapid transit corridor is developed. It should be noted that these aspects of the development have been derived in Three storey building on Taché Avenue at Rue Hébert response to the intents of the North St. Boniface Secondary lan.

Two existing single family homes (839 and 843 Taché Ave.) which front onto Taché located in front of the development property and which have the continued right to have access to the rear of their properties via an existing access easement (shown with a red dashed line on the site plan above);. The Red River context and all implications of sites adjacent to waterways; 3. The park context and all implications of sites adjacent to parks and existing public transit; 4. The potential future transit corridor land that was included in the purchase of the property but is not considered buildable; 5. A 0 foot construction easement adjacent to the potential future transit corridor on which permanent structures may not be built at this time;. Limited existing infrastructure, site services and drainage; and, 7. Adjacent elevated rail track. As a result of these factors the site plan for the proposed development (as proposed and awarded by the City of Winnipeg under OI 7-04) is compact and we are confident that this proposal optimizes the use of the property presently and into the future in a way that is transformative and beneficial to the neighbourhood and surrounding community.

The sense of security will be further improved by the new population and pedestrian activity associated with an increase in local day and night time residents. As part of the development agreement, a new sidewalk on Rue Hébert will also be constructed in conjunction with the main building s entrance walk. This area is intended to serve as a gateway to the existing river trail system. The trail itself will benefit from the planting of new trees to help enhance the space. Artist s rendering of the seven storey building and river trail CONSTRUCTION SUSTAINABILITY Our focus on innovative and responsible construction practices ensure reduced impacts on the environment throughout the building life-cycle. Graham Construction, our team s contractor, has developed a Sustainable Building Management Strategy (SBMS) and has extensive experience in sustainable design, construction, and certification. The SBMS will be applied throughout the project to ensure sustainable best management practices are implemented, monitored and documented. The building will also meet the 05 National nergy Code, requiring it to utilize fewer energy resources over its lifetime.

10 sixositiv IMACTS OF OUR ROJCT. ADDING DIVRSITY This project provides a variety of brand new housing and business options which can be attractive to a diverse range of people.. NCOURAGING CONOMIC DVLOMNT This project will help encourage more great restaurants and other businesses to set up shop in St. Boniface. Introducing this new population will enhance the local civic tax base as new residents become regular customers of neighbourhood businesses as well as utilize many of the neighbourhood institutions including schools, libraries and health care facilities. Furthermore, our development will provide the opportunity for small businesses or stores to open within easy travelling distance for North St. Boniface residents. 3. IMROVING TH DSTRIAN XRINC Currently no sidewalk or curb exist at this location. As part of the development agreement, a public sidewalk will be built along Taché to Rue Hébert and continuing to the existing public river trail. Curbs, street lighting and boulevard grass will be added on this block to further enhance the visual quality of the street. 4. CRATING ARK SAC The purchase and development of this property allows the City to establish part of the land as riverside park space which helps to provide a formalized public connection between rovencher Boulevard and Whitter ark. New trees will be planted in the new park to increase the beauty of this public space. 5. SUORTING SUSTAINABL TRANSORTATION Bike parking for both residents and visitors encourages sustainable transportation within the community and across the river into downtown. The proximity of the existing river trail provides an easily accessible scenic bike and walking route to commute to downtown or rovencher Boulevard. Also, if the future east rapid transit corridor does go through St. Boniface, this development will help support the development of this infrastructure as a viable community amenity.. IMROVING STRTSCAING The three new two-storey buildings will be home scaled to match with the existing residential street front context, helping to complete Taché Avenue s street edge. The size and materials of these building will complement the new construction occurring nearby.

11 FAQs. Does the project have a name? The name has yet to be determined.. How will the development affect traffic and parking on Taché? arking for this development will be accessed from Rue Hébert. There will be no additional driveways on Taché Avenue in conjunction with this development. To our knowledge, there will be no changes to parking restrictions in the neighbourhood. 3. How will the development affect the neighbourhood? There will be many positive benefits to the neighbourhood that are directly related to this development. A sidewalk will be built between Rues Darveau and Hébert as well as along Darveau connecting to the existing City of Winnipeg trail along the river. Curbs, boulevard grass and street lights will also be added along the west side of Taché, making it more in sync with the urban cross-section typically found throughout residential neighbourhoods in Winnipeg. Infrastructure services, including water will be improved by extending a larger capacity line to the site. In conjunction with the development, a portion of the lands will be subdivided into park space, adjacent to the existing riverside park space and trail. As part of the development, we are committed to planting trees within the park space to increase the quality of the park and trail for all. The opportunity for commercial space in this location on Taché will provide the community easy access to services that are within a much shorter travelling distance than the shops on rovencher. The creation of units facing the street, including the townhouse-style units, will fill in the missing gaps along this stretch of Taché and provide a comfortable residential-scale walking environment for the community that is similar to other streets. The site itself will no longer be a visual eye sore for the community collecting garbage and litter. Of course, we realize that a few properties in particular with be very directly affected by both the construction of the development as well as increased density that it will provide when completed. We have reached out privately to these property owners in order to address their concerns regarding the future and on-going enjoyment of their properties 4. How will the development affect the river and park trail? art of the subdivision includes providing portion the area closest to the river to the City for ublic Reserve (R-) park space. The construction of the development will have some impact on the existing trees closest to the new property line of the seven storey building. We have visited the site with representatives from Forestry, arks and lanning to discuss the matter. Forestry has informed us that trees closest to the property line are not of highly significant value in terms of their health and viability. We will plant new trees within the park space to help offset for any lost trees in the construction process. According a geotechnical engineer, the river and bank will not impacted by the development or its construction.

12 FAQs 5. What is the approval process and timeline for this project? Subdivision, zoning, variance and lane closing approvals are required from the City of Winnipeg. The Riel Community Committee is scheduled to hear our application at their meeting scheduled for September th.. What kinds of variances are being requested? The development requires variances for dimensional standards to the setbacks of all the buildings for the street front ones to have the same front setback as the existing homes on the street and for compliance with the construction easement for the potential rapid transit corridor. It will also require parking space and area variances and variances for street edge planting. 7. Is the rapid transit corridor part of the development? The land where the transit corridor may pass through is part of the purchased property, but is at this time being held by the City of Winnipeg in case the decision is made to use this as part of the ast Rapid Transit corridor. If the City decides that the transit corridor will not take this route, the land becomes part of the development. If this occurs, our plan is allow the area to remain green space. 8. When will condos be available for purchase? We are hopeful we can get construction started in the summer of 07. That being the case, the project would be ready for to start first occupancies in the late fall of What kinds of units and square footage will be there be? There will be apartment style units, including river view suites, ranging in area from about 790 to,50 square feet. The split-level duplex units will be about 857 square feet for the second floor unit and,005 square feet for the ground floor unit. The two live-work units that have about 905 square feet. of residential living space on the second floors and about 8 square feet of commercial / retail space on the ground floor. 0. How much will the condos cost? This information will be available at a later date. We are still determining the prices for each of the unit types.. Will there be parking? Yes, there will be both underground and surface parking stalls available at a ratio of stall per unit for resident parking. There will also be visitor stalls.
