City of Langley Townhome & Plexhome Best Practices Guide

Turning Community Values into Better Ground-Oriented Housing in Langley City.

Turning Community Values into Better Ground-Oriented Housing in Langley City. THE CHALLENGE Over the next few decades, Langley City is anticipating significant population growth. Acknowledging the need for more housing options, the OCP envisions “Ground Oriented Residential” land use areas allowing for townhomes and plex-homes (duplex, triplex and fourplex) along major corridors. The intention is to create a wider variety of housing types south of the Nicomekl River. THE RESPONSE In pursuit of this, MODUS was asked to undertake public engagement and create a best practices guide to inform the design and approval of developments. Community survey feedback informed the best practices guide which serves as a valuable resource for effectively addressing various development considerations and concerns raised by residents. The guidelines within it will be integrated into Langley City’s Development Permit Areas and Zoning Bylaw. Ultimately, this best practice guide serves as a tool for fostering a broader range of housing, sustainable development, enhancing quality of life, and creating cohesive and vibrant neighbourhoods for Langley City residents.
