developer would apparently only serve to expand the project rather than
reduce the density as had been requested. The City Planning Officer

advised that three factors promoted acceptance of the scheme: -the site

itself, which is very difficult to develop; ~the housing design, which

appears to be quite attractive; -the site is in the middle of a 33' lot
area.
Following consideration of the foregoing application, Alderman
Laking returned at 9:15 p.m. and resumed his place in the Council Chamber.

subdivision at 1221 Prairie Avenue, and advising concern from the public R#16-76
was expressed with respect to removal of mature trees on the lane allowance;

the noise of equipment late in the evening; school accommodation, etc.

Moved by Alderman Laking:

Seconded by Alderman Traboulay:

That the recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Committee, as set
forth in a report from the City Planning Officer, May 6th, 1976, approving
Application R#16/76 to rezone Lot 152, NW Section 6, Township 40, Pian
46259, situated at 1221 Prairie Avenue, from RS-2 (One-Family Suburban
Residential) to RS-1 (One-Family Residential), for subdivision purposes,

be adopted. Carried.
Alderman Mabbett voted against the resolution.

Prior to passage of the foregoing resclution, a discussion ensued
and Alderman Traboulay stated he felt the developer should bear the cost
of constructing Regina Street; however, Alderman Thompson pointed out
that the developer was required to install complete servicing of Regina
Street adjacent to his property and stated he felt it would be unfair to
request him to pay for construction of that section of road away from
what he is doing. Alderman Mabbett suggested that the importance of
constructing that section of Regina Street be discussed with the developer.
Alderman Keryluk referred to the resident whose house is between Prairie
Avenue and the lane planned within the proposed subdivision, and who was
concerned that his access would be restricted to the lane only in the
future whereby he has to construct another driveway from his carport to
the lane. The City Engineer advised that a condition of that previous
subdivision was that access would be from the lane when constructed but

unfortunately the message did not get through to the present owner and
