Please see the letter that the Durand Neighbourhood Association submitted to the Planning Department regarding New Horizon Home’s latest proposal for a 17 storey tower on Block 3 and our reasons for denying this application. I have also posted for your reference the MOS from 1996.
DNA – May 2013 Letter to Planning Committee re Thistle
DNA – Minutes of Settlement January 1996
Great Letter Janice! Nicely put.
This cityhas seen a jumble of ugly apartment towers dumped into attractive residential neighbourhoods with no regard for the look or tone of city’s development. It’s time we told the City “No” and these builders just think they can do it cause our city council wants the money! I agree with the previous email writer who asked “how can they close a lane on a main street in the city for nearly a year just for a condo tower build?” Money! that’s how!
