46 Hazelwood Crescent 2024

The City has received an application to rezone property at 46 Hazelwood Crescent from the Residential 1 (R1) Zone to the Apartment 1 (A1) Zone to bring an existing Apartment Building into conformance with the zoning. Currently, the Apartment Building is a non-conforming use and would have to comply with Section 7.5 “Non-Conforming” of the Envision St. John’s Development Regulations, which places restrictions on the use. The subject property is within the Residential District of the Envision St. John’s Municipal Plan, so a Municipal Plan amendment is not required. The existing building meets the A1 Zone standards.

The existing building was previously the O’Dwyer Apartments and owned by the Roman Catholic Episcopal Corporation of St. John’s as a residence for priests. The current owner has maintained the use as an Apartment Building. There is no development proposed at this time, however should the proposed rezoning be adopted, any use in the A1 Zone could be considered on the site.
