Alderman Gerry Tregaskis said he heard from ithe building insepctor that one developer was qabout to apply for a building permit before a draft’ by-law which would: require new usinesses to provide off-street parking for lientele was read a first time. If granted, the eveloper would be immune from the proposed own regulations which contemplate businesses providing one off-street parking space for every ‘400 square: feet. ‘or: part thereof of retail outlet : However, if council manages first reading of he: bylaw before the application. for a building | | the regulations will be is’ granted, etroactive and mean the developer will have to ‘provide adequate parking for his customers.
