The hearing was approved by
council in committee on Monday
night and requires only formal
first reading of the bylaw next
week.

Council members are still. not in
total agreement over the proposed
maximum building height regula-
tions, which will require reduc-
tions of four fect (1.2 m) from ex-
isting regulations irrespective of
roof style.

But most agree that it is time
for public input on the proposals
drafted in reaction to public op-
position to so-called ‘tmonster’’
homes in tne district.

The proposed amendments will
only apply to older established
neighborhoods.

Existing single-family regula-
tions will be retained for neigh-
borhoods like Braemar, Indian
River, Roche Point and McCart-
ney Woods. ;
