Mr. Don MacNeil provided a deputation in opposition to motion 14-G-096 regarding the Rezoning from General Commercial (C4) to Residential Multiple Second Density (RM2) and Draft Plan of Subdivision Application for 196 Burton Avenue (Ward 8). Mr. MacNeil discussed his concerns related to the application, primarily related to the displacement of residents at Burton Park. He suggested that Section 99.1 of the Municipal Act provided Council with the ability to prohibit or regulate the demolition of rental properties. Mr. MacNeil suggested that City Council consider deferring consideration of the application until the Affordable Housing Strategy is complete.
