To All Concerned,

Re: Zoning Amendment Bylaw: 7245, 2008
246/258 Sixth Street, New Westminster

The Brow of the Hill Residents Association is writing in support of the project at caption.

Our dealings with the development company and the owner, Don Edra, have been respectful and very thorough. We can report that we have been kept informed of all aspects of the development since it was first proposed, through public meetings and adjustments to the plan. In fact several updating meetings and phone contacts have gone a long way to assuring us that our earlier concerns (bike storage, streetscape and lane usage) were being met with since revised drawings.

Our executive unanimously supports this project, noting that the several revisions to the plans have agreed with the OCP for the Brow and are in compliance with the Brow of the Hill Action Plan for the Sixth Street corridor.

For this reason, the Brow of the Hill Residents Association would urge members of Council to support this Zoning Amendment as proposed.

Should you have any concerns or questions please feel free to contact the writer at your convenience.

Sincerely,

(Original signed by)

Richard Carswell, President,
Brow of the Hill Residents Association
