Report raises questions, concerns about proposed 6-storey building at 131 Main | (warktimes.com)

More from Bruce Wark's website on the proposed Lafford build downtown set for public hearing on June 27th:

June 27 set for public hearing on 6-storey Lafford apartment building | (warktimes.com)

"Tantramar Town Council will hold a public hearing at 3 p.m. on June 27th to hear any objections to plans by JN Lafford Realty to build a six storey, 71-unit apartment building at 131 Main Street on property behind the historic Allison/Fisher/Fawcett House.

Sackville developer John Lafford has applied for two changes to the municipal zoning bylaw to make the building possible:

(1) the property (approximately 1.3 acres) would need to be rezoned to Urban Residential 3 (R3) to allow for a residential building with more than six apartments.

(2) height restrictions in the R3 zone would need to be changed from a maximum of 15.3 metres (50 feet) to 19.8 metres (65 feet).

At its meeting last night, council set the date for the public hearing and also voted to refer the requested zoning changes to the planners at the Southeast Regional Service Commission for their comments."
