<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>last
week the Planning staff presented recommendations to go forward with a Cultural
Heritage Landscape study to see if West Montrose fit the P.P.S criteria. This
has been in the works since 2005. I will attach the Planning departments
proposal as it gives great insight to the issue. It was passed in the meeting(
3-2 strauss & weber were NO's), to go ahead with the study but further
review the Interim Bylaw wording (#2 recommendation). We thought it would
<strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>all </span></strong>be
re-addressed Feb 9th but have been blindsided. They plan to vote tomorrow
evening regarding the first recommendation to go forward with the study. This
designation could potentially stop the pit or at least allow for set backs
& reduce the environmental impact. Capital paving is not happy, had all
their big wigs out last Tuesday.</span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p>

There has been a lot of misunderstanding in the community as Dr. Shipley's
original recommendations were for both a Cultural Heritage Landscape & a
Cultural Heritage District( which has very stringent regulations &
restrictions). This misunderstanding has also carried thru to council. Most
letters of objections are the result of one misguided resident creating fear
about the CHD which is not even part of the proposal.</span><span
