RECOMMENDAT i ON:

Office to place the following resolution on the next agenda of

That Zoning Bylaw 2240, Section 802, Smal! Lot Residential,
Subsection (4), Front Yard Setback and Subsection (5), Rear
Yard Setback be relaxed for Lots 11 through 35 of D.L. 341, and
Deb». 344, Group 1 NWLD Plan 74,400 as shown on the attached
chart.

BACKGROUND:

These two cul-de-sac blocks were designated for experimental
small! fot housing in an original development plan for Citadel
Heights. During refinement of the plan for development, the
blocks were zoned RS-2, Smal! Lot Residential to indicate the
form of development proposed to be located there.

COMMENTS:

Building plans have been submitted for The lots surrounding the
+wo cul~de-sacs. The proposed houses ar. sited to fit onto
their individual lots and fit together as a designed
neighbourhood. This latter element, calis for varying front
and rear yard setbacks, it is the setback changes which require
relaxation of the Zoning Bylaw yard requirements.

The design concept is to reduce front yard setbacks, moving
houses forward at the entrance of the cul-de~sacs To create a
sense of enclosure and entry. Conversely, at the back of the
cul-de-sac, it is proposed to increase the depth of front yards
moving houses back on their respective lots.
