McCARTNEY WOODS ISSUE

Mixed housing preferred

NORTH VANCOUVER

District Council took
another walk through the
McCartney Woods issue
Monday as planning staff
asked council] to reconfirm a
policy of mixed housing
alternatives for the new
Seymour area residential
development.

News Reporter

The planning department asked
council to express housing policy
for the area “through a variety of
lot sizes and include a balanced
representation of attached housing
ata density of 12 units per acre.”

But Mayor Marilyn Baker
labelled the planning recommenda-
tion as both too specific and too
vague,

Baker asked council to vote ona
motion directing staff to prepare a
new layout for the contentious
development’ addressing resident
concerns with a plan incorporating
gradual, transitional zoning den-
sities.

“Council can then discuss the
proposals and then meet informal-
ly with the residents,”’ she said.

Ald. Craig Clark and Aid. Ernie
Crist opposed the motion.

‘4 do not consider this a life and
death issue. It is not that impor-
tant to single out the area for mix-
ed housing,’’ said Crist.

Clark concurred.

“The beauty of the Blueridge
neighborhood should be maintain-
ed to the east. I had grave reserva-
tions regarding densities, and at-
tached housing in the area,’’ said
Clark.

In supporting reconfirmation of
the McCartney Woods develop-
ment as a density transition
neighborhood, Ald. Mary Segal
said mixed housing was intrinsic to
a successful planned community.

“We want our older people to
