Surrey council to vote on tower, mosque for Whalley
Published 1:30 pm Thursday, June 4, 2026
Surrey council will vote on a proposal to build a 38-storey residential tower containing 373 dwellings and a 2,029 square metre mosque in Whalley.
Prior to that, a public hearing is set for 7 p.m. Monday, June 15.
The subject site is 13508-13546 98A Avenue.
“Staff support the proposed development as it generally consistent with applicable planning policies and contributes to housing supply and places of worship,” a planning report indicates. The applicant’s name is not mentioned in the report.
On site now is a single-family residence being used as a mosque. The project requires 151 parking stalls for the mosque and 332 for the residential part.
The Surrey School District expects 31 school-age children will live there with 19 attending AHP Matthew Elementary, seven attending Queen Elizabeth Secondary and the remaining being home-schooled, attending private school or enrolling in another school district.
