ROYOP and future PR

Profound changes

Images form info pkg PDF 3.6 Megs

Note on plan below – stores and retail sq feet given – along with over 1200 parking spots – see original in PDF

  Pond (& Council?)

See ROYOP as necessary to offset ‘drain $$$’ from PR to Terrace by shoppers

(Thorkelson voted against this ‘vision’ but lost 5-1)

And what is this ‘public Safety building’? & sale City lands?

Both signal demise of Downtown core by Pond & Company

The stratification of 49 apartment units got less discussion – even though even more units in works

Future ‘Public Safety Building’???

Wheeling & dealing behind closed doors

 

More??

Alexander & Douglas apts in works

 

Roosevelt Apartments
’stratification’

45 units with 49 parking spaces involved

 

 

What is needed?

Council is attempting to profoundly change PR from central core to sprawl

No public discussion

Nor is there any discussion on continued availability of affordable housing implicit in requests for stratification

Council asked ‘process’ questions

Thorkelson led the way but Gordon-Payne and Bedard followed the ‘lead’ – If no ‘intent to sell’ at this time, thus no ‘tenant relocation plan’ then why going through process to stratify?

There was no real answer to this except that was kind of thing that could be brought up at Public Hearing when developer present
