Few questions were raised by residents of the Tempe Heights area at the well- attended hearings, and coun- cil then gave second and third reading to the changes in the community plan and the zon- ing bylaw needed before the project can go ahead.

At that time the plan called for a park next to Boundary School, between 26th and 29th Street, and for some semi-attached housing.

City Development Director Frank Morris said the plans also include a greenbelt on the north side of the Upper Levels Highway, to act as a buffer between the busy highway and the residential area. A noise consultant will examine the best way of blocking highway noise, he said. Concern was expressed by one resident about whether Boundary School would have to be expanded to ac- comodate the new children who would move into the development. Morris said they estimate no more than 60 to 80 new elementary school children will move in- to the area, and they can easi- ty be handled by Carisbrooke and Boundary Schools.
