PPCMOI – Construction of a five-unit multi-family dwelling – 56 Charlevoix Street – Hull-Wright electoral district – Steve Moran

The committee reviewed a proposal to replace an existing building with a five-unit multi-family dwelling at 56 Charlevoix Street. The project requires a special construction, modification, or occupancy project (PPCMOI) approval because it exceeds the maximum number of units allowed in the zone and involves a site in a heritage preservation area. Despite concerns about the building's height and lack of parking, the committee recommended approval, noting the project's contribution to densification and family-friendly housing.
