Table 3-Projected Development Statistics
Table 3 will see approximately eight (8) hectares (20 acres) removed from the golf course, with 2.7 ha
(7 acres) to be used for residential development and 5.3 ha (13 acres) to be used for commercial use.
This will increase the number of dwelling units by 103, with a potential population increase of 271
(3.3%) over the current plan.
Figure 5-Development Concept
This has been amended to provide for residential development consisting of golf cottages, staff, and
student housing. These residences will be integrated into the golf course lands, with access from Keil
Drive. The commercial development of hotels, retail shops, and conference centre will be adjacent to
Highway #16, with proposed access at the Carmichael Lane intersection. The proposed intersection at
Highway #16 is the subject of a Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) prepared in conjunction with this
amendment.

3-4 DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT
The Development Concept (see Figure 5) has been created by translating the goals expressed by
landowners and stakeholders into a design that:
1. Respects existing development within the plan area (notably the operating golf course),
2. Responds to physical constraints, and
3. Actualizes the vision and guiding principles.
The Development Concept accommodates predominantly residential uses with open space
corridors proposed where connections make the most sense. These corridors provide an efficient
connectivity network which links to the existing extensive trail system and provides connections to
existing amenities and recreational facilities. While physical constraints within the plan area do not
preclude development they do affect the feasibility of standard development practices.
Mixed Use/Highway Commercial areas are proposed along the Highway L6 Corridor, consistent with
existing highway development in Hinton. Access to the West ASP is oriente d to Highway 15 and
Wanyandi Avenue as the future bypass route prohibits connections along the south portion of the
plan area.
The following Projected Development Statistics are based on the Development Concept:
