The exclusion of the properties to the west of Taylor from industrial: use
is due to the fact that more than half of the properties fronting on McLean
Avenue are already developed residentiaily. Also this area is presently
zoned RS-1. It is therefore committed to residential use. In addition,
Taylor Avenue, being a 99-foot road allowance is much wider than the normal
road width of 66 feet. A part of it can therefore be developed into a
buffer. Based on the foregoing, it appears that Taylor Avenue serves as a

logical boundary.

The Committee also wishes to draw Council's attention to the current zoning and
subdivision pattern in the McLean south area. Although a good part of this area
has been subdivided into 33~foot lots, these lots are not permitted to be built
on, on account of the RS-2 zon ‘which requires minimum lot size of one acre.
Furthermore, if the area is to be developed, it would have to be first rezoned
to RS<1 in which case, all 33-foot lots have to be consolidated for replotting
into 5400 square~foot lots with minimum width of 60 feet in order to meet the
present zoning and subdivision regulations. The Committee wishes to re-~affirm
that the only undersized lots (including 33-foot lots) that are permitted to be
built on are those presently zoned RS~1. Undersized lots outside the RS-1 zoning
‘area are neither buildable nor possibile to be rezoned to RS~-1l.

The entire area east of Pitt River Road was also briefly reviewed by the Committee.
The Committee is concerned about park and school facilities in the area _ and there fore-

wishes to have some input from other Council Members.
