has been adopted, it was suggested that the 50' minimum frontage be

waived even further, which could result in a precedent being set. Alderman
Traboulay stated that at the last meeting of the Planning and Zoning
Committee, it was suggested with respect to the small-large lot mix,

that these not be alternating in a subdivision due to marketing problems;
however, Alderman Ranger stated he felt it was very important to have an
inter~mix rather than isolate smail lots, and Alderman Mabbett agreed, stating
he felt that developers could submit better housing designs for small

lots as there are mostly working people in this area looking for affordable

housing.

A discussion then ensued, and Alderman Ranger stated his intention
of voting against all applicaticns for residential housing this year
that are North of the Lougheed Highway and East of the Coquitlam River
as a means of objecting to the Provincial Government's procrastination
in reconstruction of the Lougheed Highway. Alderman Keryluk stated he
felt serious consideration should be given to viewing the property as a
potential commercial site as he did not think the property was best
suited for residential development. Alderman Thompson stated he agreed
