development · Near the Guesthouse, Denman Island

The Denman Community Land Trust Association (DCLTA) is advancing an eight-unit Seniors Affordable Housing project on two acres near the Guesthouse. The project faces regulatory complexity involving multiple agencies and land use restrictions including ALR exclusion and density limits. The DCLTA emphasizes community consultation and sustainable design standards.

• “Seniors’ Affordable Housing will be an eight-unit development... on two acres of land next to the Guesthouse... The project had to apply for exclusion of the land from the ALR... The Official Community Plan supports... a 5% increase over the buildout... The DCLTA has an egalitarian structure... The Seniors’ project is going to go for total passive heating... accessible design, and a purple pipe wastewater conservation system.” — The Islands Grapevine – May 2nd, 2019 (May 2nd, 2019)
