I t� 16 Mimi I REPORT NO. : PD-142-83 Page 2 BACKGROUND: On September 6, 1983 the General Purpose and Administration Committee considered Staff Report PD-121-83. As a result of the Committee's consideration, Resolution ##GPA-704-83, was passed referring the matter of parkland dedication to the staff for further investigation and report. COMMENT: On September 9, 1983, the Deputy Director of Community Services and the Director of Planning conducted a visual inspection of Block 60 proposed plan of subdivision 18T-83006. As a result of this investigation, it was reaffirmed that due to the terrain of the site and the fact that the area is predominantly wooded, the site was not acceptable or necessary for recreational purposes. Staff are therefore again recommending that Block 60 not be accepted as park dedication. However, in view of the applicant 's objection to dedicating the subject Block for conservation purposes we would recommend that it be included in Lots 40 to 44 inclusive, and that a 3.0 metre walkway be provided between lots 44 & 45 to facilitate access to the adjacent valley lands.
