Revised Development Plans in Bridgwater Forest

Sep 18, 2017

COMPLETE A COMMUNITY SURVEY BY NOVEMBER 6: Bridgwater Forest Neighbourhood Association (BFNA Facebook Page) is conducting a survey and asking the community if they agree with Manitoba Housing’s proposal and what should be put on this site. The survey deadline is Mon., November 6, 2017. SEE SURVEY: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MWT7M3K

As background information, on May 3, 2017, Manitoba Housing, developer of the Bridgwater neighbourhoods, hosted an open house to receive community feedback on its proposal to build 21 lots on a 6.9 acre property at Prominence Point and Bridgland Drive North.

MANITOBA HOUSING UPDATE: Based on the comments received at the May 3rd Open House, Manitoba Housing has revised the development plan to:

Reduce the total number of single family lots from 21 to 17
Increase the lot widths to be consistent with the surrounding lot widths
Increase buffer areas (including plantings in the buffer areas) between the new and existing lots on Prominence Point and Bridlewood Road
Remove the pathway in the buffer area between the newly created lots and Bridlewood Road

Details are shown in the drawings below. Manitoba Housing has stated it intends to move forward with this revised plan for subdivision with the City of Winnipeg later this year. A date has not yet been finalized. For more info, contact Manitoba Housing at 204-945-5944; email housing@gov.mb.ca; or visit their website.
