Full RecordingRezoning Application No. 2021/01 – 167, 169 and 171 Island Highway
"The Senior Planner presented revised renderings showing mature landscaping and setbacks from Portage Park. Councillor Mattson opposed the project, arguing it was too tall, too dense, and lacked sufficient community benefit compared to other developments. Mayor Screech defended the project as a suitable location for density along a major transit corridor. Council discussed securing additional park amenities through a covenant."
Formal MotionPassed
"THAT Zoning Bylaw No. 900, 2014, Amendment Bylaw No. 1083, 2022 be given first and second reading."
