TO: Mayor and Council ; DATE: July 3rd, 1979

FROM: Planning & Zoning Committee RE: R#3/79

SUBJECT:

Application to rezone .1431 ~ 1455 Prairie Road from
RS-1 to C-2 for a retail commercial development.

LEGAL DESCRIPTION:

Lots 61 and 62, NW 1/4, 6/40, Plan 31851
Lots 198 and 199, NW 1/4, 6/40, Plan 56242

BACKGROUND:

The proposed development is to be undertaken by Humford
Developments which developed the Prairie Mall and the Shopping
Centre at Coast Meridian/Salisbury. The appearance of this
proposed project will be similar to the one at Coast Meridian/
Salisbury.

The following are some of the relevant data of the project:

SITE AREA 32,000 square feet
BUILDING AREA 13,660 square feet
BUILDING HEIGHT 15 feet (one storey)
PARKING 31 stalls.

The proposed development site is outside the established
boundary of the North Side Commercial Centre, and consequently
modification to Council's established policy on this Centre is
necessary.

In conjunction with this proposed development, the Planning
and Zoning Committee reviewed the North Side Commercial Centre
-concept and is of the opinion that it is desirable to re-align the

northerly and easterly boundaries of the Centre as shown on the
attached sketch. This is primarily a matter of tidying up the
overall boundary of the North Side Commercial Centre.

RECOMMENDATION:

The Committee recommends:

(1.) The preposed development be advanced to a Public Information
Meeting.

(2.) The policy on the North Side Commercial Centre toundary be
modified as shown on the attached sketch,
