   GENERAL MANAGER'S COMMENTS

        The General  Manager of  Community Services RECOMMENDS  approval of
        the foregoing.


   COUNCIL POLICY

   At a Public Hearing on July 14, 1988, City Council approved in principle
   a rezoning of the Fraser Lands.  The CD-1 By-law was enacted on July 25,
   1989,  and companion guidelines (Fraser  Lands Block 67  to Kerr Street,
   Guidelines for CD-1  By-law Number  6533) were also  adopted by  Council
   resolution at that time.


   PURPOSE

   In  accordance with  Charter requirements,  this report  seeks Council's
   approval for the  form of development  for this portion  of  the  above-
   noted CD-1 zoned site.

   SITE DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND

   The site  is located on the northwest corner of Jellicoe Street and Kent
   Avenue North.  The site and surrounding zoning are shown on the attached
   Appendix 'A'.
   Subsequent to Council's approval  of the CD-1 rezoning, the  Director of
   Planning  approved  Development  Application  Number  DE400319.     This
   approval was subject to various conditions, including Council's approval
   of the  form of  development.  The  latter condition is  one of  the few
   outstanding prior to permit issuance.

   DISCUSSION

   On May 14,  1991, Council approved the form of  development for the west
   portion  of the site, being  two three-storey multiple  dwellings and an
   accessory  amenity building,  subsequently  approved  under  Development
   Permit Number 212072 and constructed as Phase One. The site has now been
   subdivided and the current proposal  is to develop the easterly site  as

   Phase Two.

   The  proposal  involves  the  construction  of  a  four-storey  multiple
   dwelling containing 39 dwelling units.

   Simplified  plans, including a site plan and elevations of the proposal,
   have been included in Appendix 'B'.

   CONCLUSION

   The  Director of  Planning has  approved Development  Application Number
   DE400319, subject to various conditions to be met prior to  the issuance
   of the development permit.  One of these  conditions is that the form of
   development first be approved by Council.
