Development Variance Permit Application File 58/89

River Road.

AND THAT at a subsequent meeting the City Council adopt a resolution to
permit the Zoning Bylaw No. 2240, Section 808 RM-4 Apartment
Regulations. Subsection (5) Front Yard setback to b -5

In the original design for this project the Architect Oriented the
buildings towards Central School Playgrounds. In that design the buildings
were pulled away from Pitt River Road. They have reconsidered the initial
plan of placing the buildings close to the school grounds. What is being
Proposed is to push the ends of two buildings close to Pitt River Road, to
provide space to pull units away from the playground. The only impact will be
on the ends of two buildings from traffic noise. The decrease setback will
not be visually prominent, because of the turn and rise in the road will

distract attention.
