TO: Mayor and Council DATE: August 30

FROM: Planning and Zoning Committee

The Planning and Zoning Committee met on Wednesday, August 29, 1973 and discussed
the following matters:

1. Rezoning Application No. R1173 - Property located at 2175 - 2179 Pitt River
Road (See map attached).

Request for rezoning from RS-1 to RM~1 or RM-2 to accommodate a 14 suite frame
apartment, :

The property is not large enough to accommodate the 14 suites requested with
the present provisions in our Zoning By-law for RM-1.

This property was the subject of a previous application earlier in the year to
construct 14 suites for senior citizens use. At that time the Committee was
prepared to pursue the project, however, the applicant withdrew his application
in favour of single family or duplex construction on these two parcels,

The Committee is not prepared to recommend rezoning for apartment construction

at this time. The area is outside of our present apartment area phasing and

the Committee feels that the apartment area development should be confined to

the lands surrounding the downtown core. The Committee therefore recommends

rejection of the application. Nolte. The appheast, Mr. Wen Pleitues, will be on atleudsace

2. Rezoning Application No. R1273 - Citta Cong

This application involves a request to rezone property at 2706 and 3350 Lougheed
Highway from RS-1 to CS-1 for parking area and lumber storage as part of the
Beaver Lumber premises.

The Committee felt that this should be received for further consideration and
recommend that if possible a development contract be used. The area involved
was recommended for CS~1 use in the Eastgate Study prepared in 1969. The
rezoning request is therefore compatible with those recommendations which were
adopted by Council at that time. The Committee felt that there was a need to
control certain aspects of the operation, in particular, lumber and material
storage adjacent to the highway, consolidation of the parcels of land comprising
the operation, also a review by the Traffic Committee of access and egress to the

property.

The Committee recommend that the application be given further consideration and
that a development contract be pursued,
