However, it advocates that development consider adjacent homes and the streetscape on that block. Strong consideration will be given to adjacent homes and the streetscape when reviewing Development Permit applications.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Design Principles<\/span>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Land use policies provide for a variety of housing types within Brentwood.For Residential Single Detached (R-C1) areas, the policy allows the existing character of single family detached housing to remain unchanged.<\/li>\n<li>The Brentwood Station Area Redevelopment Plan (ARP) allows for areas withhigher density within the radius of the designated TOD area.Within the area of the ARP, proposed developments requiring relaxations of the statutory guidelines of the ARP (such as height or main street concepts) will not be supported.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>New development should be scaled to lower density except along major transportation corridors.In the (re)development of those areas, maximum building heights should be sensitive to adjacent buildings and a respectful transition in heights must be maintained.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>While the City of Calgary has approved secondary suites, including Backyard Suites as a Discretionary DP for the city as a whole, the Brentwood Community Association and the DTC continue to review proposals to ensure that they are consistent with the bylaws and standards, as well as take affected neighbours\u2019 comments into consideration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Infills and new home construction should be sensitive to building mass and height of adjacent homes and should maintain current setback standards.Extensive relaxations will not be supported because of the potential negative effects on adjacent properties.Infills and new home construction should follow contextual guidelines even if it means they avoid being built to maximum bylaw standards because it would not maintain the character of the streetscape of the entire block.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Most homes in Brentwood have back alleys and garages accessed through the alley. Any developments or redevelopments should follow that model.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Front garages are discouraged other than where they already exist.In cases where an existing home has a front driveway, no new curb cuts should be made. For example, if there is a single width driveway leading to the back, a new redevelopment should not include a double front driveway.<\/li>\n<li>Window and deck placement in new homes or in updates to existing homes should respect privacy of neighbours. Backyard secondary suites must have window and deck placement that complies with the City of Calgary Backyard Suite Guidelines.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Supporting a Pedestrian and People Oriented Community<\/h2>\n<p>The Brentwood Community Association and the committee support the maintenance of a cycle, pedestrian, and transit friendly community.<\/p>\n<p>Brentwood has ease of access to public transportation with networks focused around the Brentwood LRT station connecting the community to the Central Business District (i.e., downtown) and other city quadrants. Brentwood has a Community Transit Score of 70-89, which means that transit is convenient for most trips (City of Calgary, 2011). Bicycle lanes have been and, may continue to be, added throughout the community. Brentwood has a Community Walk Score of 50-69, which means some amenities are within walking distance (City of Calgary, 2011).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Design Principles<\/span>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improve pedestrian access to services, in particular those associated with the Brentwood Transit Oriented Development.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Minimize high vehicular traffic volume except on main transportation routes and minimize the impact of \u201ccut-through\u201d traffic on smaller residential streets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Lower allowable speeds and install traffic calming measures such as speed bumps, raised medians, traffic circles and curb extensions on selective secondary streets, except on main transportation routes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Support residents who seek parking restrictions or permits on their streets because of spillover parking.Residents must petition others on their street as per the City of Calgary requirements should they wish to apply for parking restrictions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Support public transit networks oriented toward the Brentwood LRT Station.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Maintain the quality of recreational facilities to meet the needs of all age groups.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Protecting the Natural Environment<\/h2>\n<p>Brentwood is now characterized as a heavily treed community, with mature deciduous and fir trees, and has many greenspaces and parks.

well-established community located in Northwest Calgary. Comprised primarily of single family dwellings, the majority of which are owner occupied, the community is characterized by long-term residents who raised families in the community and have remained into their senior years.<\/p>\n<p>The Brentwood community profile provides a detailed description of the demographic and household information of the community (City of Calgary, 2019a). The City of Calgary (2019b) projects that the Brentwood population will increase at a higher rate than the rest of the city with a 90% increase between 2014 and 2030. Most of this increase will be driven by new development &#8211; high density multi-family dwellings &#8211; along the main Crowchild transportation corridor.<\/p>\n<p>Brentwood and its neighbour to the east, Charleswood are separated by Brisebois Drive and Charleswood Drive.\u00a0 The map shows that the north-west section of Charleswood extends far into Brentwood.\u00a0 Observations in this document on the nature of the Brentwood community may also apply to Charleswood community.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Green spaces and parks<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Many crescents in Brentwood have green spaces in the centre.
