SUBJECT: LOT 1, SECTION 8, ESQUIMALT DISTRICT, PLAN 35505
To whom it may concern,
According with the notice on the lot, there is a rezoning application proposal for a new 6 storey building with commercial area for that lot.
We own and live on 308 Island Hwy and we would like to ask you to take in consideration the next points:
- We are concerned for the blasting to build 6 storeys building due the proximity of our property. Our house is built on rock and every blasting is going to affect our foundations. We would like to ask to the builders for a warrant against damages on our property due the construction work.
- Other buildings around are not more than 4 storeys and is going to alter the general look of the neighbour.
- There is currently high dense traffic mainly during commute hours and a elementary school nearby and 3 bus stops at that corner. With a building that size the traffic conditions are going to be challenging.
Thank you so much for your attention to these subjects.
Regards,
Leopoldo Padilla and Rebeca G. Price 308 Island Hwy,
