Supporting Study:Servicing & Density

• Bridgwater Town Centre NASP encourages higher-densities within the Commercial Mixed Use Policy Area.

• This is required to support local commercial establishments & is not consistent to CMU zoning standards.

• Servicing Study conducted in Jan 2021 compares potential density to the built/proposed densities:

• 2586 potential units

• 1718 proposed/built units

• Town Centre has sufficient servicing capacity for the development proposal of 155 units.

Supporting Studies:Shadow Study

• The properties will not be impacted during the Fall Equinox

• The commercial land uses and northern most Townhomes to the North will experience increased shadow during the winter months when the sun is at its lowest (sunrise & sunset)

• The proposed development is anticipated to meet the City’s sunlight requirements & will not adversely impact neighbouring properties
