PAC Meeting Results 4/10/19

So basically The Town has said take the waterfront and do what you want even though there have been limitations put on this area to preserve the area of the waterfront... Here you go Cordova, do what you want...Disappointing to say the least. The more signatures on this Petition will signify that the tax payers of Riverview should be able to have a voice on this! Be sure to sign and share! The Town knows about this petition!

From the article:

Riverview's planning committee approved bylaw variances Wednesday for a 10-storey mixed-use tower along the Petitcodiac River that's drawn opposition ever since plans were revealed in late March.

Residents at the meeting said the project represented a "fundamental change" to the character of the New Brunswick town of 20,000, while others touted the boost it would provide to town tax revenue.

Cordova Realty Ltd. is proposing two eight-storey towers with 150 residential units rising from a two-storey podium of retail space and above-ground parking.

The committee unanimously approved five variances of town planning bylaws.

They include reducing the required streetside setback from 4.5 metres to zero, building within 30 metres of the Petitcodiac River, increasing allowable building height from four to 10 floors, the location of some required landscaping, and reduction of the required landscaping buffer at the edges of the property.
