The Village is seeking proposals for a fourplex housing unit.
The following are key building design considerations which determine the overall suitability of the project: 1. The Project is to be based off the following concept information:
2. The proposed 4 units will consist of:
a. 1 - three bedroom "family" unit, 2 bathrooms; and
b. 2 - two bedroom "self-contained" units with own bathroom and shared common areas (kitchen, living room); and
c. 1 - one bedroom OR two bedroom unit.
3. Because this will be a publicly owned asset with a long expected functional lifespan, the life- cycle costs place a priority value on quality, durability and energy efficiency embodied in building materials and systems. The exterior materials and finishes are to be of high quality and detailed to withstand the climate of the north. Exterior finish selection should give attention to durability consistent with high quality housing and minimize ongoing maintenance costs. Proponents may look to the Village of Valemount Community Plan multi-family design guidelines and Valemount Zoning Bylaw for appropriate material specifics.
4. The interior materials and finishes are to be of good quality with attention to livability and
durability consistent with high quality housing (see BC Housing Design Guidelines).
5. Roof shapes should give the development a friendly experience from the street with a preference to peaked roofs.
6. Project should meet or exceed the national Energy Code for part 3 building or national building code for part 9 building.
7. Area should be designed to accommodate a garbage bin for multi-unit housing.
8. Landscaping to be of low maintenance and consider xeriscaping. Performance Bond
