Surrey planning report 7922-0129-00

Staff Report to Council Application No.: 7922-0129-00 Planning & Development Report Page 4 RECOMMENDATION The Planning & Development Department recommends that this application be denied. However, if Council is of the view that there is merit to proceeding with an application that proposes an urban form of development, Council could refer the application back to staff to explore urban development options that respond more sensitively to concerns regarding neighbourhood character/density, land development and drainage engineering requirements, school capacity issues, park requirements, and neighbourhood concerns. This would require a reduction in density from what is currently proposed.
