The Director of Development provided an overview of the application PUBLIC REPRESENTATIONS David Roppel, Director of Planning and Development for the applicant, Aragon Properties Ltd., and Tom Bell, GBL Architects, the architect for the project, spoke in support of their application. Mr. Roppel advised that this application in no way increases the volume or size of the building, and while the density is increased by a very small amount, the use is unchanged and the look of the building is improved. He expressed the view that the new common area proposed improves Spring Street.
Tom Bell expressed the view that this represents a significant improvement to the building by relocating the amenity area into found area that during design they realized could be used. This change increases the safety factor of the development by contributing to the concept of more eyes on the street.
Moved, seconded and CARRIED
THAT Bylaw No. 2889 be forwarded to the June 14, 2011 Regular Council meeting for further consideration.
