Charke, Artist, commenting on a letter, dated April 9, 1997, from the City with respect to a secondary suite at 2031-140 Street, seeking a solution to their situation, and if this is not possible, refund the original rezoning application fee which has not yet been approved. (2104-016; 6391-5099-00) COMMENT/ACTION: This letter was referred to Building Division, Planning & Development, who advise that under the current policy, all suites, legal or otherwise, are subject to the additional utility levy. Furthermore, all suites must comply with current Building Code and Building By-law. The payment of the additional utility fee does not in itself obligate the property owner to comply to the Building Code as the Charkes seem to infer. Although the Secondary Suite inspector has advised the Charkes what has to be done to remove the suite, they have requested this in writing. We will provide our direction to them in writing as they have requested. It appears, also, that the Charkes have decided to withdraw their rezoning application and request a refund of the rezoning fee. Their application will be returned to them along with their refund.
