24 strictions on buildings in the old town of Richmond Hill occupied members of council in committee of the whole February 28, Chair- man David Stephenson stat- ed no decision would be reached at the meeting which was for the purpose of get- ting input from councillors, citizens and citizen organiz- ations. However, there was a degree of urgency since council’s decision must be ready for Municipal Board hearing March 8. As a culmination of their study of “Transportation In Our Community” Mrs. Beverly Forrester’s grade 1 class at Bayview Fairways Public School, decided to build a model community. The children examined the different shapes and types of buildings, different ways of transporting their families, and the location and size of parks and playgrounds Protect Spire Skyline Ask For 50 Foot Height On Yonge Town Solicitor Tom Fra- ser told council and a fairly large group of interested citizens that at the OMB hearing on Bylaw 66-71 which has succeeded Bylaw 1000 (in the old town) there had been objections lodged about the lack of height re- strictions. Instead of re- strictions height of buildings under this bylaw would be controlled by coverage of the site, especially in resi- dential zonings. ln handing down its de- cision the board said it would pass the bylaw with-‘ out a further hearing if it was amended to contain height restrictions no more onerous than in Bylaw 1000, it was reported. 35-100 FOOT Mr. Fraser noted that heights of dwellings (single, duplex, triplex and fourplex) under Bylaw 1000 were lim- ited to 35 feet maximum height. Apartments in R28 also had a maximum 35 foot height. Apartments in RM zones had a maximum height of 60 feet. Some apartment buildings, he pointed out, had been allowed to exceed that maximum by amend- ments to the bylaw. In Commercial 1 and 3 zones the maximum height under Bylaw 1000 was 35 feet and in Commercial 2 and 4, 100 feet. There was no height restriction in industrial zones. Chairman Stephenson also noted that Bylaw 66-71 pro- vides no formula to control height in commercial zones. Planning Director Hessie leon admitted there was a deficiency in the bylaw which does not have a cut- off point as to height. How- ever, it does leave greater flexibility of design which may work both ways for less lot coverage or more lot cov- erage. Councillor Andy Chateau- vert said he felt Bylaw 66-71 did not provide sufficient control of height. “With a sufficient amount of land we could have 40-storey build- lngs and I don't think that would be advisable for Rich- mond Hill." Councillor Jack Major wanted to know the average height per floor and was told between 10 and 12 feet in residential zoning. Discussion on height r_e- Regional Councillor Lois ‘Hancey succeeded in getting council to vote in favor of height restrictions. SAVE SKYLINE Some members of the pub- lic, with graphic displays. urged council to save the un- ique skyline of Richmond Hill with its trees and church spires by limiting construc- tion on Yonge Street and adjacent areas to treeheight (about 50 feet). David Fayle and Mrs. Marylo Graham were two of these speakers and the former pointed out to council that there are many other areas in town where higher buildings could be permitted without in- fringement on the distinctive character of the town's sky- line visible for miles in all directions. Mrs. Graham's presentation shortened be- cause of the late hour, show- ed graphicalLv how Yonge Street could become a can- yon of high-rise buildings without height restrictions, w h i c h would completely dominate the skyline of the future. Planning Director Rimon when asked his opinion stat- ed he wanted to listen to the THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday Ba yview Fairways Children Build ‘ Maggi H C ammunity input of the evening before making up his mind. 80 FOOT LIMIT fire Chief Bob Kennedy, recommended a maximum height of 72 feet in the town. noting that the aerial equip- ment the town has ordered has a height limitation of 80 feet. "Anything above 72 feet will have to have life- saving features built into it," he warned.
