Re: Land Use Contract for Addition to Commercial Building
on Shaughnessy Street

Council may find itself familiar with the proposal of Mr.
George Horner to add to the existing commercial building on Shaughnessy
Street adjoining the Shaughnessy Mall. There have been two occasions
in which Council was briefed on this proposal.

The proposed addition and its usé, however, have major problems
in two areas relating to the present zoning of C-3. As a result, only a

Land Use Contract can permit the development to proceed,
are:

1. Second floor exceeding 35% maximum coverage.

2. Proposed "library" use not permitted in C-3 as it is defined
as a "civic" use,

The regilation of the Zoning By~law limiting to 35

developments in our Tewn Centre. Th
C Zones, however, is being studied 7
the Zoning By-law now underway, and
Council in the near future.

The 75% coverage proposed by Mr. Horner, in my view, is not
objectionable for a two Storey building.

The problem areas

In consultation with the City Engineer, it has been indicated that

no off-site works would be required as a condition

If Council does not consider this to be out of order without a
formal recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Committee, I would recom-
mend that approval in principle be given so that a by-law can be prepared

to designate the site a development area and negotiation for a Land Use
Contract can commence.
