Cranbrook council has given first reading to a proposed multi-unit development in the Wildstone area.
The development would consist of two phases with two buildings built in each phase.
Each building would be a four-stories with 63 units.
After both phases are complete there would be 252 total housing units.
Councillor Norma Blissett says the development would fit a need in the community.
“I’m not hesitating on suppurating this at this point in time. I was quite pleased to see this type of development because there is a number of seniors that are looking to move out of their houses and into apartments,” she said.
“This is an ideal development, plus they’ve proposed underground parking.”
The city will be starting public consultation on the development before it comes back to council.
