October 19 Pin up Review.

Nice job to all of you yesterday. 

Time to get down to form and phasing ideas for your community plans

Be able to answer thesese questions. 

Why do you think density should or will  go to the areas you presume. 

2. Do you imagine a strategy that can apply anywhere or just in some areas, requiring zoning regulations if the later. 

3. How is your density solution the smartest solution for affordability. 

4. How is your density solution the smartest solution for the other elements of sustainability (awalkability, ecology, jobs close to homes, solar exposure, etc. )

In addition , we have changed requirements to incorporate your sketching skills. You will note these changes on the assignment, indicated in red. 

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1g0vh-TaXHL3Ds2ONrLE_5BSdBwXa6zm0MF23DaN3_0M/edit

Finally, a reminder that this assignment is your opportunity to integrate an understanding of city wide urban design using  the principles of the Seven Rules book, essentialized in the concept of the "five minute city" as highlighted in the assignment. By now you should have identified those five minute nodes in your sector and thought about a reasonable strategy for reinforcing their function through added housing, commercial space, jobs and transit.

Forum on affordabiliy

 The forum on affordable housing that i mentioned is viewable here. 


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zptBe46lw8Q


Its quite dull but you should watch it anyway to get a sense of issues that are not confined to Vancouver but are global, and how policy people are trying to solve them. 


I personally only agree with about 20 percent of what was said but at least you can see that SOME people agree with me.

River District and affordable housing. Links to Champlaign Heights and Killarney

The target for affordable housing in the River District. They wont make it apparently. 


 https://council.vancouver.ca/20160531/documents/p5.pdf


From this report. 


2. Affordable Housing Requirements in the EFL ODP

The EFL ODP currently requires that 20% of all units are to be for affordable housing to ensure that EFL is a mixed income, sustainable, and diverse community. The proposed locations of the affordable housing sites were identified in the EFL ODP and option-to-purchase agreements for the sites were secured through the rezonings of Areas 1 and 2. As Development Permits are issued on ‘trigger’ sites, the City has one year to exercise the options and purchase the site to ensure that the delivery of affordable housing is in step with market development. Given the progress of market development, the first options to purchase affordable housing sites are now being triggered.

The City has allocated $8.1 million (plus inflation adjustment) in the 2016 Capital Budget to purchase the first three option sites in Area 2. Funding for the remaining option sites will be secured as part of Capital Plan/Budget processes.

The EFL Financial Plan acknowledged that Council may choose to proceed with building the affordable housing sites in the absence of senior government and/or other partnership funding, by allocating additional capital funding and/or selecting alternative forms of affordable housing, such as market rental housing or affordable home ownership which would require amendments to the ODP and CD-1 by-laws.


Affordable housing sites proposed.
