South Surrey is set to see a new development that includes a restaurant and an 80-room hotel. An online public hearing will take place tonight, Monday, May 27, at 7 p.m. on surrey.ca.
Key Details of the Proposal
The proposed development, located in the 2100 block of King George Boulevard, aims to replace an existing hotel and restaurant. To proceed, the project requires several approvals, including an amendment to the city’s official community plan (OCP) from urban to commercial, rezoning, and a development permit.
Planning and Community Impact
The planning report highlights that the site currently under-developed, has a Commercial designation in the King George Local Area Plan (LAP). Increasing the property’s density and enhancing its utility will greatly benefit the area. Moreover, the site benefits from excellent bus route service, making it strategically valuable.
The project includes a four-story hotel with 80 rooms and underground parking. The proposed 14-metre height of the building transitions appropriately between the nearby townhouses and the mixed-use buildings planned for the intersection of King George Boulevard and 156 Street.
Next Steps
The proposal has not yet undergone review by the city’s advisory design panel. However, public input during tonight’s meeting will play a crucial role in the decision-making process.
