City Staff are supporting calls to delete sidewalk requirements in the Mattamy's Half Moon Bay Subdivision in Barrhaven.
In a motion for next week's Planning and Environment Committee, Councillor Jan Harder asks Council to approve the "deletion" of the requirement to construct sections of sidewalks in parts of Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the project.
Harder says that given the density and reduced building setbacks in the community may result in increased concerns regarding the location of some sidewalks relative to the location of vehicular driveways, the sidewalks should be deleted from the plan.
