Canada: A 30-unit, four-storey apartment hotel has been proposed for a property on Woodsdale Road and Turtle Bay Court in Lake Country, British Columbia.
It is adjacent to an RV park with amenities such as bus service, e-bike rentals, a convenience store and a petrol station being close. The site is close to the lakeshore and is also near Beasley Park and the Okanagan Rail Trail.
The applicant will be required to seek a development permit and a development variance permit, for reduced parking, to authorize the development concept. This will include vehicle access and parking off Seymour road and pedestrian accesses off Woodsdale road and Turtle Bay Court. If the council supports this application, it will proceed to a public hearing. The date for this hearing has not been determined yet.
Woodsdale Road has been recently proposed with multiple townhouses and multi-family buildings. A staff report said: “There are multi-family developments in process across the street on the south side of Woodsdale and proposals for increased residential or tourist commercial density on adjacent Turtle Bay Court properties. Generally, the proposal is appropriate for the location and supports many of the targets and policies set by the district for development. The proposal complies with the zoning requirements for density and site coverage. Providing sufficient parking spaces is the limiting factor of the site.”
