MEMORANDUM

TO: B. Kirk DATE: September 27, 1988
City Administrator

FROM: W. Brown
Director of Community Planning

RE: 920 Citadel Drive
Development Variance Permit (File No. 64/88)

RECOMMENDATION :

That City Council direct the Clerk's Office to notify surrounding property
owners of this application and to place the following resolution on a
subsequent meeting agenda.

That a Voluntary Development Variance Permit be issued to Pcl 1, D.L. 232,
340, 341, 344, Grp. 1, NWLD Plan 77605 relaxing the following requirements;
Development Services Bylaw 2242, Section 13(b) obliging developments to follow
public works standards on site.

Zoning Bylaw No 2240 Section 502(3b) Balcony setback requirements from 1.2
metres to 2.5 and Section 808 (7) side yard setback requirements from 3.5
metres for windows to 1.8 metres

COMMENTS 3.

The subject property is located on a peninsula surrounded on two sides by the
Citadel Park and on one short side by the new Estate Housing phase. The
design rationale for proposing the Zoning Bylaw relaxations requested are that
the property is mostly surrounded by park, hence there is not a problem of
visual encroachment on a neighbours private open space. With respect to the
windows oriented to a side yard, it is the developer's opinion that kitchen
windows and high windows are of value to provide light and they wish to keep
the windows.

With reference to the Development Management Bylaw, this relaxation is a
standard one to overcome a deficiency in the bylaw.
