? THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM -~2- Existing commercial centre is adequate and further expansion is ‘not desired. Concerns over the types of business moving into the proposed development, in particular, business such as - convenience stores which the residents feel to be catalyst to vandalism and noise. Upgrading of Ulster to Salisbury is desirable as cars are now parking on Ulster, north of the lane. Concerns cver the possibility that the proposed comm- ercial development may result in increased on-street parking on Toronto and Ulster and that vehicles may use the end of Toronto for turning around. Several accidents have already occurred on the lane behind the proposed development. It was suggested that speed bumps may be the solution. Additional crosswalk on Prairie east of Coast Meridian is desired. : RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Committee recommends that the proposed commercial development not be approved for the following reasons: . 1. The notice of the public information meeting was unable to reach a number of new homeowners in the subdivision on Toronto and Oriole due to technical difficulties. 2. Some recent home buyers in the same subdivision were not advised of the proposed commercial development by the builder who had earlier agreed to advise all potential home buyers of the proposed development.
