Committee of the Whole
Meeting Overview
The Committee of the Whole met on September 13, 2011, addressing protective services reports, capital projects updates, and architectural firm presentations for the new Fire Hall. The evening session focused primarily on Planning and Development applications. Council recommended staff prepare a rezoning bylaw for 1900 Watkiss Way, but declined a Temporary Use Permit for a 'Return-it' Depot at 1497 Admirals Road following public input. The rezoning application for 256/258 Plowright Road was tabled. Council also carried several development variance and environmental development permits, including 325 Bessborough Close (with two members opposing holding the DND approval for dock guidelines), 44 Bamford Court, and 2400 Burnside Road West, and appointed a liaison to the Chilco Trails Plan Steering Committee.
