Delta council has given three readings to rezoning for a fourplex on Ladner’s Arthur Drive, that will follow a heritage alteration permit in its design.

The lot is within the Ladner Heritage Conservation Area 2 and is now vacant It used to contain the Dobbins home. That building was on the city’s heritage inventory list, but was demolished in 2011, leaving a covenant in place that required a larger setback for any future building, as well as tree retention.

The lot at 4569 Arthur Drive has 16 trees and is surrounded by a mix of heritage homes and new construction, according to a staff report.

Because the property is within the heritage conservation area, it requires a heritage alteration permit in order to preserve distinctive elements of Arthur Drive and to develop a heritage character for new buildings.

The report also notes that the building will feature design elements similar to the Thomas Ladner house built nearby in 1893

Each unit will have a separate entrance, three bedrooms and attic space, as well as its own private outdoor space.

In response to resident feedback, the size of the building was decreased and parking was improved, as well as tree retention. Parking is located on the sides of the building, which allows for verandas, columns and bay windows

The owner is also willing to build a new retaining wall and fence, said the report from staff. Council heard the owner is also willing to look at using permeable pav- ing stones in particular for the patio areas, in response to a concern from a resident

Although the property has 16 mature trees, only one is being proposed to be removed because of its condition

“It’s nice to see fourplexes come to the table here,” said Mayor George Harvie at the July 24 council meeting.
