A proposal to rezone
duplex property into one of
the last multiple dwelling
zones in West Vancouver
was in the hands of the
public at a hearing Monday
night before West Van
council.

Of the two people who
spoke to council, both were
in favor of the proposal for
the property located at 101-
22nd Street, which calls for a
two storey terraced apart-
ment building.

Architect Robert Burgers
said the proposal is to be a
“better” alternative to
building two duplexes. “We
felt it was worthwhile to try
and design a more sym-
pathetic use for the property
and its slope,” he added.

Under council questioning
Burgers emphasized that the
building will have a
maximum height of 28 feet,

limit set by the municipality,
and all parking will be
underground.

Speaking for adjacent
residents, H.A. Lackner told
council that because the
owners have “been sub
jected to considerable
expense already’ the
proposal should go ahead.

“Our building does not
object. The concept is very
exceptional and we are very
much in favor of it,” Lackner
said. “One reason 1s that
we're dealing with long-time
residents of West Vancouver
and another is the housing
shortage,” he added.

Although there were no

on the proposal.

“I believe that develop-

with proper controls this
type of development is
acceptable,”” wrote J.C.
Stevens of Bellevue Avenue.

Eleanor Godfrey, also of
Bellevue Avenue, expressed
concern about the
