The Planning and Zoning Committee were requested by Council, on September 14, 1981,
to report on the Shaughnessy Street Corridor. The Committee offers the following

report for Council consideration.

The Shaughnessy Centre Plan was drafted by the Planning Department, in consultation
with City Council, in 1971. While numerous changes in the City have occurred over
the past ten years, the Plan has remained intact. The boundaries for the area are
as follows:

NORTH: KINGSWAY EAST: MARY HILL

SOUTH: PITT RIVER ROAD (NORTH SIDE) WEST: REEVE
Development within this area is to ocenur in four phases, with the majority. of
residential lands fronting onto Shaughnessy being in phase three. While all forms of
residential development in this area would de considered, the Planning and Zoning

Committee would base their recommendation to Council on the Shaughnessy Centre Plan.

There would appear to be some uncertainty as to what lands fall within the Shaughnessy
Street Corridor, Some may consider only those properties fronting onto Shaughnessy,
while others may examine lands within one block on either side. Whatever the boundaries, -
Shaughnessy cannot be considered in isolation of neighbouring properties. In order to
determine the land use plan for the Centre, all properties within the boundaries of Plan
area must be evaluated. As mentioned by one member or Council, this can only occur in
the context of a Community Plan. At such a time, community residents will have the

opportunity for input and assist Council in determining the future for the area.
