RODGERS Creek will be home to a new community, following a unanimous decision by West Vancouver council Monday.
Approximately two years after winning approval for a neighbouring development, British Pacific Properties got the go-ahead to begin work on an 88-unit development at 2900 and 3000 Cypress Bowl Road opposite Dear Ridge Estates.
District staff touted the creation of a strong and diverse addition to the Mulgrave neighbourhood in recommending the 23-acre project, which includes 50 strata apartments, 21 single family houses, 14 duplexes and three townhomes.
The project also includes nearly 10 acres slated to become a public green space.
Because the rezoning has made the land considerably more valuable, the developer is scheduled to pay the district $7.94 million in community amenity contributions.
The project includes three new trails as well as the construction of a wetland at the south end of the site.
Council's decision represents BPP's fourth substantial development in Rodgers Creek.
