The City will plan to accommodate an annual average of 230 units per year over each 5- year phasing period not to exceed 345 units in any one year. From 2010 to 2024, the ’s average annual number of units is 123. This is less than the allowed 230 unit annual allocation. With existing projects underway, this project will be phased over multiple years to meet growth management requirements. The Phasing Plan is detailed later in this report. 6
