PC Meeting December 7, 1993 Cont'd

DISCUSSION:

The Planning Department recommends that this application for extension to
the Rezoning Application be approved, as the applicant is still interested in
completing the process. However, in our opinion, the request to waive the
Payment of an additional fee for the extension is not justified as it is the
responsibility of the applicant to satisfy all conditions imposed by either
the City or Provincial Authorities prior to final adoption of the amending
Bylaws.

Based on correspondence between the applicant and the Ministry, copied to
us, the conditions of approval imposed by the Ministry could have been
complied with. The applicant's insistence in having the the moving of a sign
done at the Ministry's cost, however, has resulted in delays.

In his letter, the applicant also claims that the City initiated the
rezoning of the subject property from M-1 (General Industrial) to CD
(Comprehensive Development). Records indicate that the applicant submitted
the rezoning application in 1987 in order to create a truck stop with uses
that could not be accommodated within the M-l Zone.

As the Amending Bylaw for this current application has remained at Third
Reading for over a year now, it is recommended that the extension be approved
subject to the applicant submitting the additional fees, in accordance with
established City Bylaws, by December 31, 1993. -
