HOUSE ALL DEPARTMENTS All township departments will Bay Ridges Apartments Tentatively Approved BROUGHAM Pickering Township Planning Board has tentatively approved two appli- cations from Consolidated Build- ing Corporation for a 17-storey, 170-suite apartment building on four acres in Block Y, Bay Ridges, together with stacked maisonettes to contain 150 units on six acres. The second pro- posal is to develop the whole site in conformity with the sub- division agreement with a mix- ture of town houses, back to backs and stacked units. If the developer fails to ob- ain mortgage monies for the roposal which includes the gh-rise, he will proceed with the second. $. Rumm, of CBC explained to the board at a meeting last week that either. of these plans eut off 131 units from their for- mer proposals, and on this, the 10th time that the developers had appeared before the board, for this development, he hoped that he would be granted sanc- tion without too much delay. NEED SEEN | The planning board favored the high-rise apartment plan because members estimated there would be fewer school children: with the commuter train coming to Dunbarton, there would be need for apart- ments. . | high-rise would entail 366 bed- rooms; 10 per cent one-bedroom apartments, 65. per cent two- bedroom, and 25 per cent three- bedroom. The second proposal for the whole site to be constructed in town housing would yield 200 suites and a bedroom count of} 670, 90 four-bedroom suites, 90 three-bedroom suites and 20 two-bedroom suites.
