Pleasantvale Homes Update: Catherine Comben

HELLO EVERYONE

JUST TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON THE HAPPENINGS AT PHS SINCE JULY.

1. THE LAST PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING PLEASANTVALE WAS HELD ON JULY 29, 2014 AND COVERED TWO ITEMS: THE DEVELOPMENT VARIANCE PERMIT AND DEVELOPMENT PERMIT. BOTH WERE PASSED UNANIMOUSLY BY COUNCIL. ONLY ONE NEIGHBOUR SPOKE ABOUT HER CONCERNS REGARDING THE HEIGHT OF THE  NEW BUILDING AND POTENTIAL BLOCKING OF HER VIEW OF KNOX MOUNTAIN. SHE LIVES ON ROANOKE AVENUE WHICH IS 3 BLOCKS FROM OUR COMPLEX. BRYCE TUPPER OF NORR ENGINEERS/PLANNERS AND JULIET ANDERTON RESPONDED TO QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL AND BOTH WERE CONCISE AND COVERED KEY POINTS.   

2. THE BUILDING PERMIT HAS NOW BEEN SUBMITTED TO CITY HALL AND THE TENDER DRAWINGS ARE ALMOST COMPLETE SO THE PROJECT IS MOVING FORWARD ON SCHEDULE.

3. DEMOLITION HAS BEEN UNDERWAY AND I WILL SEND A COUPLE OF PHOTOS TAKEN BY OUR CUSTODIAN  VIA ANOTHER MEANS (WEEKLY BULLETIN) SO THAT YOU ARE ABLE TO SEE THE CHANGES, IT APPEARS THAT THIS PHASE WILL BE COMPLETED  SHORTLY, 11 UNITS ON CAMBRIDGE 661-697 AND 648 RICHTER HAVE BEEN DONE AND VERY LITTLE IS LEFT TO COMPLETE.
