A hastily called council meeting on the controversial Steveston Highway bike lane is being held this week.
City council is hosting a special general purposes (GP) committee meeting on Wednesday, June 7 to address this agenda item instead of waiting until June 12 when it is supposed to be discussed.
Council voted against more funding (5-4 vote) for a three-phased, three-metre-wide multi-use pathway project that would run on the south side of Steveston Highway.
Richmond’s planning committee on Tuesday, June 6 will decide whether to approve the rezoning of a Capstan area for a mixed-use development.
According to a city staff report, Dava Developments Limited is looking to develop a mixed-used mid- and high-rise development that will see 136 marketing housing and 27 affordable housing units as well as non-residential hotel use along Garden City Road.
