January 31st, 1977 /3.

Zoning Committee at its meeting next week.

A resident of Harbour Street inquired why the developed portions of
properties on that street were zoned RS-] (One-Family Residential),
while the remainders were zoned RS~2 (One-Family Suburban Residential),
and Alderman Laking advised this was done many years ago for the purpose
of allowing houses to be built on a portion of the one-acre or more
sized parcels, while at the same time preventing development of the
remainder.

Mr. Ed Kruchkowski, 3878 Richmond Street, stated his concern at the
zoning of the Nature Area being RS~2 (One-Family Suburban Residential),
and Alderman Thompson advised that was the existing zoning at the time
the property was so dedicated,

“ Mayor Campbell then commended members of Council and Staff involved
in the preparation of the new proposed Zoning By-law, and at 8:05 p.m.
the Hearing was concluded. A brief recess was taken and the meeting
reconvened at 8:10 p.m,
