Residents feedback has trigerred a reduction in the height of a planned multi towers project in the Municipality of Clarington.
The proposed development is planned at Highway 2 and Bowmanville Avenue in Bowmanville, and envisages some 3,900 home units.
On June 17, Clarington residents participated in a Statutory Public Meeting regarding a Weston Consulting application on behalf of Kaitlin Corp. for the proposed development, said a municipal update.
The proposal, which would be developed in phases, consisted of nine high-rise mixed-use buildings with heights ranging from 30 to 40 storeys.
The Clarington update said during the public meeting, council listened to residents’ feedback and passed a motion directing staff to work with the developer to resubmit a plan for a maximum of 18 storeys.
It said the reduction in height is more consistent with the proposed Bowmanville West Urban Centre and Major Transit Station Area Secondary Plan.
