Circle Gateway proposal

Local record and application

What this record means for a receiving site

Fairfax reviewed a concept to replace two commercial buildings at 3250 Blenheim Boulevard with ground-floor commercial space and apartments. A council briefing occurred September 1, 2026. The filing remains a pre-application concept, not an approved construction start or a confirmed restaurant tenant. The plan is a proposal at a key downtown entrance, not an opening notice. Design renderings cannot establish the truck route, utility capacity, or food tenant operations of a finished building. Use the property’s actual land-use status and entrance plan before treating it as a receiving site. Circle Gateway’s concept includes future ground-floor commercial space but no approved restaurant dishroom. If a later tenant requires temporary warewashing during fit-out, Fairfax dishwashing trailer rental must follow its permit and actual rack demand. The receiving plan should locate hot water, drainage, clean ware storage, and truck access outside construction gates at 3250 Blenheim Boulevard. The proposed building also includes apartments and structured parking, but neither provides a dishroom specification.
