| > MEMORANDUM OCT 23 1978
TO: Mayor and Council . . DATE: October 18th, 1978

FROM: Planning and Zoning Committee . RE: R#16/78

SUBJECT:

Application to rezone part of the properties at 1730 and
1740 Westminster Avenue from RS-2 to RS-1 to enable subdivision of
the two properties in question.

LEGAL DESCRIPTION:
Lot 33 and Rem. of 34, Blk. Q, D.L. 466, Pian 17811

BACKGROUND:

These two properties in question have split~zoning. The
frontage along Westminster Avenue is already zoned RS-1 while the
remainders are RS-2. It is the remaining RS-2 parts of these
properties that are being requested for rezoning.

These properties are the oniy undeveloped land pocket in
the area and wereat one time desired by the City as a part of the over-
all development.involving the John Dawson subdivision to the west and
the strata housing project on the south side of Imperial Avenue, as
this will enable all the works on Imperial to be completed all at once.
However, due to ownership complication, these two properties were not
possible to be developed at that time. .

The proposed subdivision will generate a total of 17 lots and
will enable the completion of a walkway for pedestrian access from St.
Michael to Westminster Avenue.- Cancellation of the northerly 20 feet
of Imperial Avenue for inclusion into the development site is proposed.

RECOMMENDATION:

The Planning and Zoning Conmittee has dealt with this appli-
cation and recommends that it be advanced to Public Hearing.
