Dear <strong>City</strong> Clerk,<br />
I am writing to express deep concern over the proposed zoning amendment to the area known<br />
as School House Hill from Comprehensive Development Area 6 (CDA-6) to the new zone<br />
designation as Apartment Medium Density (A2) Zone for the proposed condominium<br />
development by Powderhouse Hill Investments Ltd.<br />
Quidi Vidi Village Is a gem in the middle <strong>of</strong> <strong>St</strong>. <strong>John's</strong>. I live in Portugal Cove but make an effort<br />
to bring visitors to the area, as well as suggest to many tourists and conference attendees that<br />
they must take time to tour Quidi Vidi Village for the walking trails, the scenic beauty and<br />
historical significance.<br />
A 5-storey, 24-unlt residential apartment building would be out <strong>of</strong> place and radically change<br />
the area. As well traffic congestion has plagued the area and is a great concern <strong>of</strong> residents.<br />
I am asking the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>St</strong>. <strong>John's</strong> to deny the proposal to change the zoning and that it adhere<br />
to the Quidi Vidi Village Development plan especially with the wonderful changes happening at<br />
the Eli Tucker premises.<br />
I<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Cc Frank Galgay, <strong>Council</strong>lor
