Carnival Cinemas lot approved for rezoning
An application to have the Carnival Cinema plot rezoned to a primarily residential district was approved in its second and third readings in city council’s May 13 public hearing.
During the hearing, council discussed the benefits and potential drawbacks of amending the Land Use Bylaw and Capstone Area Redevelopment Plan to rezone 5402 47 Street from CAP-TD Capstone Taylor Drive District to CAP-PR Capstone Primarily Residential District.
The amendment was passed unanimously on both its second and third reading.
The building’s owner, Bill Ramji, submitted the initial application and has plans to redevelop it into an apartment building, with the option of commercial services for future residents being developed nearby.
