Land Division, a business unit of the City of Lloydminster, is proposing adjustments to the land use bylaw, municipal development plan and an area structure plan for the current greenfield lands located near 72 Avenue and 29 Street. Known as Parkview Estates, this neighborhood currently offers approximately 655 acres of primarily residential, commercial, green space and educational amenities.

What were the proposed amendments?

The proposed amendment offers the opportunity to accommodate a row house development consisting of approximately 200 dwelling units. This plan substitutes an initial intent of providing additional single detached dwellings.

The proposed use integrates well into the developed area, providing a transition between higher-density residential uses to the south, with low-density development to the north. The proposed development offer residents of Lloydminster an alternative housing option, for residents 55+.

The amendment is submitted by the City of Lloydminster’s Land Division and proposes to:

    1. Reallocate approximately 6.35 ha. (15.70 ac.) of low density residential to medium density residential to accommodate the proposed development;
    2. Establish an alternative development concept for Phase 6 of Parkview Estates, should an additional school site not be required in the neighbourhood;
    3. Provide additional opportunities for commercial development at 7202 34 Street,
    4. Reconfigure and enhance the future linear park system within the neighbourhood; and
    5. Reallocate the original 0.71 ha. (1.75 ac.) of medium-density residential situated in the south-east corner of Phase 6 as low-density residential, consistent with adjacent development.

Applicant

The City of Lloydminster has been approached by Nautical Land Groups (NLG)/Wellings. Their intentions for the property are to offer over 200 row-housing residences for Lloydminster residents aged 55+. This type of development will offer patrons a number of leisure and security supports while they transition into retirement and the later stages of unassisted living.
