The project includes a voluntary payment of $19.55m into the city’s neighbourhood opportunity bonus system due to the size and scale of the development.

Eighty percent of the completed payment will be allocated to the neighbourhood opportunity fund in order to support commercial corridor improvements in underserved neighbourhoods.

The remaining sum will be used to support designated landmarks across the city, as well as infrastructure improvements near the development site.
