Public Hearing for 1477 W Broadway (RBC Site)

6 pm, Thursday, April 14th

We've found serious problems with the 1477 W Broadway rezoning application and have published our extensive research here (click here). For instance: 

• City staff state that the application's proposed height & density aligns with the Broadway Plan, even though Council hasn't approved the Plan yet.
• The developer is attempting to sidestep $3.3M in fees and will not make any financial Community Amenity Contributions, the money used for childcare facilities, social housing, and parks.
• Staff say that no public parks or plazas are shaded by the building, but they didn't assess shadowing at the winter solstice, the darkest time of the year.

We need overwhelming participation at the public hearing and in writing to have an impact on Council. Below you will find details on how to speak at the public hearing, how to write to Council and a poster that you can put up in your mailroom to inform neighbours.
