None presented.

Questions and responses during the hearing included:

• K. Balzer, Director of Engineering and Public Works: most of the area roads have improvements and construction is underway. The intersection is not part of any project at the moment; a traffic plan for Langford is being proposed and other improvements will be prioritized when that is complete.
• Y. Nielsen, Director of Parks, Recreation and Facilities: having a park dedication next to housing creates liability issues and tree removal will be the City's expense; maintenance will be the Strata's responsibility.
• L. Stohmann: as part of the Development Permit process, fire protection is provided, and the development will have a covenant that will be registered.
• Y. Nielsen: Willing Park is a .5 km from the development.
• Rachael Sansom: fence is only to keep the greenspace left at a natural state; blasting notifications fall under the blasting companies' responsibility; blasting will be smaller and is regulated; the Construction Plan could have more detail; playground at Olympic View is set to be complete in 2025 and the development hopes to be complete then as well.

Councillor Szpak inquired how the frontage improvements are paid for.
K. Balzer responded that all developments pay into a fund and projects are paid for from those funds. Developers would have to do frontage improvements on Gwendolynn Dr.

Mayor Goodmanson declared the Public Hearing for Bylaw No. 2137 closed at 8:16 pm.
