Cranbrook council has given one reading to a density amendment for a possible apartment development to be located adjacent to Laurie Middle School on a parcel at 114 17A Avenue South.
The land is currently medium density, which allows for 35-80 units per hectare, and the amendment would raise that to 80-120 units per hectare.
The parcel is 0.22 hectares in size, so there could be a max of 24 units.
The proposed development is for a three storey apartment building with 24 two-bedroom units.
The proposal will come back to council in a future meeting.
