acquisition and development costs and alternatives involving land swaps
with developers and requiring developers to develop parks ag, part of

their subdivision requirements, and a comparison was drawn to the G.V.R.D.
Parks Committee which to date has directed almost all funds to Park

Acquisition and not development thus resulting in numerous areas which

are not useable due to lack of development. Alderman Thompson suggested

Campbell agreed that this would be done.

Carried.

Prior to the question being called on the foregoing resolution, the
Planning Officer outlined the three applications under consideration and
advised that due their close proximity to one another, the Committee

to R#17/76 he advised that the application covers parts of the two
blocks bounded by Marshall, Brown, Warwick and Ryan and the 26 lot
