On Council agenda June 28th there is a report recommending approval of  official plan and zoning bylaw amendments to facilitate a development of 12 freehold townhouses at King Rd and King Blvd.  As I expressed in September 2019 at the the time of the statutory public meeting there is much to be satisfied about with this application:  a different format of housing than the single residential units dominating King City, the simple, modern architecture, the location itself on King Rd where there is regional bus transport, proximity to schools, libraries, shopping etc.  I do,however,  question whether there is too much being squeezed in. There is the right number of parking spaces (3) but those three spaces are on the private condominium road which is identified as being more narrow than optimal although acceptable. I believe that there are a few mature trees on the lot so I do want to know about compensation for those trees being removed. Finally am glad to see that there is coordination with the site immediately to its east which is also being developed.  As always you can present comments at a Council meeting by registering at clerks@king.ca 0r 905 833  by 12 noon on June 28th; or comments can be emailed to clerks@king.ca and they will be circulated to Council.
