2420 Nary Hill Road ~ Signage and Request for Rezoning

The Women's Center property is currently zoned for single family
residential uses. Free standing signs are nat permitted in any single family
residential property. There is, therefore, a need to rezone the property
prior to the placement of a sign on the property.

Since the City ia the owner of the property and that your department is
administering the property, it would be appropriate that you obtain
authorization from the Administration to submit a formal application, through
the Planning Department to rezone the property to Pl, Public Inatitutional 5
this use will permit the legal operation of the Women's Center and, subject to
the provisions of Sign Bylaw, the erection of a free~standing sign.

While we are on the subject of signs, I would stress the importance to
ensure that all egipnus erected in the City by the Muateipality, fully comply
with the Sign Bylaw.

Our job of administering land usé and other bylaws becomes very difficult
when other departments of the Muniedpality act, on & consistent basia, with
total disregard of these Bylaws. Gertainly you are aware that there is
sufficient legal precedence of dismissal of charges, for breach of
regulations, when the responsible authorities is proven to-be inconsistent
with the enforcement of the regulations.

L trust we will have the cooperation of your department and situations
like the Women's Center and the clustering of illegal signs at the corner of
Shaughnessy Street and Pitt River Road will be promptly resolved.
