OF $100.00 Mayor casts deciding vote TERRACE Richard Sandover-Sly will has finally got an answer to his rezoning request — and it's ‘No’. Alter councillors split 3-3 on the issue at their Feb, 8 meeting, mayor Jack Talstra used his cast- ing vote to reject the rezoning ap- plication, Sandover-Sly’s efforts —_—to rezone two Park Ave. properties to R3 mutii-residential had been stymied since councillors decided at a Nov. 2 committee of the whole scssion they would not vote on the malter unless all members were present at a coun- cil meeting. The Feb. 8 meeling was the first time there has been a full tumout - since then. The 3-3 deadlock saw. council- lors Danny Sheridan, Darryl Laurent and Mo Takhar favour the change while Ruth Hallock, Rick King and Bob Cooper op- posed it Noting he was currently in- volved in a housing project which required R3-zoned land, Sheridan Said finding a suitable property had been a problem. **There’s not much available,” he explained. He also feared rejection of the rezoning would send a message to potential developers that coun- cil did not want this type of de- velopment in the city. King rejected that suggestion, arguing il showed only that coun- cil wanted “‘well-planned R3 that fits in with the city plan,”’ Hatlock pointed out the pro- _ posed land use which will form the basis of the new OCP offered “ample opportunity’? for multi- residential development. Her main reason for rejecting, she added, was the opposition ex- pressed by neighbours at last year’s public hearing. ‘I’m here to represent the people, not individual . devel- opers,”’ Hallock maintained. Asked by Sheridan whether she was inferring he was representing individual developers, . Hallock -said that was not her intention in .. any way.
