                               (complete)                          


      Proposal: A nine-storey mixed-use  development including  General
                Motors  car dealership  and maintenance  facilities, 35
                dwelling units  and  office use  on  levels 3-9.    (No
                technical analysis provided but  probably approximately
                1.2 FSR residential, 1.8 FSR commercial).

      Issues:   -    Burrard  Slopes C-3A  Guidelines  state  the  area
                     should  be  primarily a  residential neighbourhood
                     and  large scale  office and  retail uses  are not
                     encouraged;

                -    Central Area Plan states that further major office
                     capacity should not be added;

                -    any proposal  over  1.0 FSR  requires  conditional
                     approval;

                -    staff advised  applicant  of non-support  for  any
                     commercial density over 1.0 FSR; and

                -    proposal  appears  not  to  meet  the  Height  and
                     setback   criteria  of  the  Burrard  Slopes  C-3A
                     Guidelines.
