The approved proposal includes
a building that will rise 33.5 feet
above grade on Gallant Avenue
and 42 fect above grade from the

Perspective of the Deep Cove
Yacht Club. The building will con-
tain ground-level commercial space
and two levels of underground
parking as well as 17 two-bedroom
condominiums.

Ald. Bill Rodgers said the de-
veloper had been very responsive
to the community's wishes, and
Ald. Rick Buchols, who also ap-
proved of the development, said,
“reducing the overali height of the
building was a good idea; the
shape adds much to the design.”’

Buchols abso approved of the
revised access to the underground
parking, which is designed to elim-
inate pedestrian and vehicle con-
flict.

Rather than entering the parking
area via an uphill ramp crossing
the proposed new sidewalk, vehi-
cles will now enter at the same

recently approved cultural centre,
with the lower profiled cultural
centre moving to the east end of
Gallant Avenue.

But Ald. Joan Gadsby
said the swap would require the
developer to build on a smaller tot.
The resulting mass. she said,
would spoil the entrance to
Panorama Park and force the cul-
tural society to provide under-
ground parking that would
dramatically increase their costs
and result in a complete redesign
of their facility.

Mayor Marilyn Baker voted
against issuance of the develop-
ment permit.
