That’s allowed under the cur- rent R2 zoning because it’s a home business. However, Mason wants to hire employees who will not be living on the premises'and that requires a zoning change. When the request came before council's planning and public works committee, city planner Marvin Kamenz cautioned the property was located in ‘‘a con- troversial area’. He explained there was a well- established residential area just to the west whose residents did not want to see any change and past experience had been rezoning ap- plications in this area died at the - public hearing stage. ~ ‘ He . suggested a new type of . zoning, © commercial-residential. - This zoning ‘could allow commer- cial activity but restrict it to a maximum of 50 per cent of the floor space of the building. Other conditions could require the- outside appearance of the building to: fit in with others in the neighbourhood, he added. Pointing out such a zone would create a buffer between the downtown commercial core and residential areas, Kamenz said its creation: would be one of the recommendations in the new community plan his department is putting together, Aldermen and committee. mem- bers Bob Cooper and Danny Debt expert in town TERRACE - If you have trouble with consumer debt or if you have questions about bill col- lectors, a provincial official in town today and tomorrow can help. ; Harry Atkinson is from Victori and works with the provincial govemment’s consumer credit “and debtor assistance branch.

Sheridan disagreed, Cooper said the commilce’s recommendation should follow the existing community plan earmarked for the arca. Going for a C1 rezoning would also allow council to get a feel of the public’s thinking on expan- sion of the commercial core, he added. “Te’s sort of the thin edge of the wedge in terms of development of that part of the street on a com- mercial Jevel,’? added alderman Ruth Hallock.
