1.
,
Mr. Wallace Little began by giving a resume on zoning theory, purposes
and procedures.
In reply to questions by Council concerning the zoning of specific areas,
Mr. Little explained the thinking behind the placing of these areas in
their respective categories.
He stressed that B,r-Law Number 2326 in its present state might be called
a "freezing"Þy-law, which allowed Council to retain control while work-
ing out future zoning action.
It was felt by Council that this whole zoning problem was a very difficult
one, and that further familiarity with all its aspects was most desirable.
To this end, Mr. Little sugge.ted:
(1)
(2)
Literature on the subject.
Other speakers from his own firm and from the Department of Planning
and Deve lopment . I
Films.
(3)
He also suggested that after making use of the above, it might be advis-
able for Council and Planning Associates to make a joint tour and in-
spection of the whel. area. After this, the public meetings to acquaint
the ratepayers could be held.
2. In the light of the zoning discussion, and after most serious and con-
scientious consideration, Council
AGREED that the Resolution permitting Mrs. Peggy England's property,
Lot 131, Dunbarton Gardens, to be used for manufacture of silver and
brass churoh ornaments, could NOT be approved.
