Municipal Plan passed–Zoning bylaw next step

So the Municipal Plan has been adopted by the City of Saint John. To ensure the plan is fruitful, an updated zoning bylaw is needed.

Design professional and Planning Advisory Committee member Morgan Lanigan has written a thoughtful piece about this issue for Spacing Atlantic: http://spacingatlantic.ca/2012/01/31/city-and-country-a-tale-of-zoning-regulations/

New City Market Tenant

I see in tonight’s City Council agenda that there is going to be talk about a potential new tenant for the City Market.

I’ll be interested to hear who this is.

The agenda refers to the space as Stall E.

I was in KV today and saw that the site work adjacent the Marr Road Irving is pretty substantial.

Police station progress: windows

I heard from a lot of sources that last winter was challenging for construction.  With the weather this year, I wouldn’t be surprised if projects were ahead of schedule. 

The police station now has a lot of windows installed, which might have been a bit more tricky had snow, wind and cold temperatures been in greater supply.
