TO: Mayor and Council July 17th, 1974

FROM: V.G. Borch, P. Eng., City Engineer

Re: Westgate Enterprises Ltd. — Rezoning Application R#15-74

This memorandum is to advise that on Monday, July 15th,
1974 a building permit application was received by the Chief Building
Inspector from a representative of Westgate Enterprises Ltd. to con-
struct a 76-unit apartment at 2986 Coast Meridian Road. The plans
submitted appear to be the plans that were prepared prior to the exten-
sive discussions and negotiations which have been continuing between
the Developer and the City since February this year. Council is aware
that this years Planning & Zoning Committee has been considering on a
continuing basis, necessary revisions to the Zoning By-law as it presently
relates to RM-l and RM-2 zoning. It is interesting to note that this was
first an agenda item at the Planning & Zoning Committee Meeting held
Wednesday, Pebruary 5th, 1974. A meeting was held on Wednesday, July
10th, 1974 between Alderman E.W. Mabbett, Alderman P.F. Ranger, the Chief
Building Inspector, and the Planning Officer and recommendations for
Council's consideration concerning multiple residential zoning are attached.

Section 707 (1) of the Municipal Act states in part “prior
to the adoption of a Zoning By-law, sees, OF O£ an amendment to a zoning
By-law, .o.., the Council may cause to be withheld the issuance of a
building permit for a period of 30 days from the date of the application".
In view of the Developer's previous agreement to enter into a Land Use
Contract and in view of the amendments to the Zoning By-law respecting
multiple residential zoning that are being considered, the Council might
wish to consider instructing the Chief Building Inspector to withhold
the issuance of a building permit for a period of 30 days from July 15th,
1974. Before this 30 day period has expired the Council might also wish
to consider what further action might be appropriate as outlined in Section
707 (2) of the Municipal Act. . .
