MAYOR AND COUNCIL DATE: MARCH 5, 1975

_ PLANNING AND ZONING COMMITTEE

Re: R#21/74, West of Cedar Drive
- R#24/74, Prairie/Regina

The above are two of the several applications for rezoning RS~2 lands to
RS-1, These applications were received by the Planning Dept. after the adoption
by Council the policy of no further rezoning of RS-2 lands. Consequently, these
applications had not been: deait with by the Planning and Zoning Committee until
February 27, 1974 when the Committee was reviewing the overall policy.

The Committee recommends that these two rezoning applications be approved,
the reasonsbeing that:

1. The lands in question are adjoining RS-1 areas.

2. Servicing in both cases is not difficult.

3. Shortage of building lots is being experienced in the East Sector.

4. In respect to R#24/74, rezoning is considered to be highly desirable
as subdivision of the land will facilitate the opening of Regina to
Prairie which will improve access and services to the new Recreation
Centre.

Planning Officer.
