RECOPgMENDATIONS:
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration
Co_rr~nittee recommend to Council the following:
1. THAT Report PD-270-87 be received; and
2. THAT the By-law attached hereto to amend By-law 8~4-63 as amended, be
forwarded to Council for approval.
BACKGROUND AND COMMENT:
At the General Purpose and Administration Committee Meeting of April 6, 1987, the
Committee resolved (Resolution ~~GPA-313-87) to request Staff to review By-law 8~4-63
with respect to Convenience Commercial Stores in "C1" zones. This direction arose
following consideration of an application submitted by Southland (7-11) for
rezoning of a parcel of land located at the northwest corner of the intersection of
Highway No. 2 and Liberty Street to permit the development of a convenience store.
Staff would note that the General Purpose and Administration Committee and Council
at their respective meetings of July 20, 1987 and July 27, 1987 endorsed the
following resolution:

REPORT NO.: PD-270-87 PAGE 2
"THAT Planning Report PD-193-87 be received for information; and
THAT Staff be authorized to proceed with the necessary Public Notices
in respect of the proposed amendment to By-law 8~+-63 included herein as
Attachment No. 1."
Staff would note that the appropriate Public Notice was placed in the local
newspapers to be published on September 16, 1987 advertising Committee and
Council's consideration of the proposed by-law.
In consideration of the intent expressed by Council previously, relative to the
restricting of the number of convenience stores located within the
municipality, Staff would note that the by-law amendment attached hereto would
provide further assistance in its interpretation and clarification of Council's
intent. Staff would note that by further narrowing the definition of Retail/
Commercial Establishment and Convenience Store, a rezoning will now be required
for any person to establish a convenience store unless such store is located
within a "Neighbourhood Commercial (C2)" zone.
The proposed By-law attached hereto would amend By-law 84-63 as noted above.
Respectfully submitted, Recommended for presentation
