The civic square
At the centre of Phase 2 is a 1.09-acre civic square, publicly owned and operated. As part of the original vision, it is a part of the zoning. The land for the civic square is a donation from Design For Happiness to the municipality. Ground-floor units and commercial frontages open directly onto the square.
The municipality chose this plan, rezoned the land for it, and approved the amendments with no appeals. Phase 2 is not a parcel awaiting an idea; it is the centre of Komoka's new town centre, with the support to make it a reality.
The team
What a partner receives
A site that Design For Happiness has carried through the hard years: the 2017 competitive RFP win, municipal rezoning, full servicing, stormwater design, and a planning framework now in place, with 69 award-winning rental townhomes rising next door at Phase 1 (under construction).
The selected build partner will have freedom within the approved framework. Rental, condominium or a mix; adult lifestyle or starter apartments. The overall vision must hold, but the product and market strategy is yours.
What remains
Two holding symbols (h-2, h-3) remain on the zoning until three deliverables are complete: a noise report, a vibration analysis for the CN main line, and a site plan agreement. All three are completed at site plan by the party that finalizes the building designs. Phase 1, located closer to the rail line, completed its studies and is built out; Phase 2 is further away. No further Official Plan or zoning approvals are required.
Who it suits
Phase 2 is suited to builders and investors with mid-rise experience and the capacity to carry a 346-unit, mixed-use project through site plan and construction: institutional developers, established regional builders, and groups with government-backed housing programs.
A detailed information package is available under a mutual NDA. To request it, tell us who you are, a comparable project you have delivered, and the role you would take in Phase 2. We respond to every qualified enquiry.
