At City of Kelowna councilsa国际传媒檚 Feb. 27 regular meeting, Coun. Charlie Hodge said he felt a housing development planned for the citysa国际传媒檚 north-central area is too much.

sa国际传媒淚 know we like to do infill, but itsa国际传媒檚 overkill for that part of the neighbourhood,sa国际传媒� said Hodge.

Waters Development Management and NDY Contracting have approached the city to build eight, two-bedroom townhouse units at 979 and 983 Coronation Avenue, between Ethel and Graham streets.

Two, three-storey buildings are proposed for the south side of Coronation and will feature a large private rooftop patio and shared rooftop garden.

Coun. Rick Webber was also concerned about the density of the project, noting there are mostly small single-family homes in the area.

Council has given initial consideration to rezone the property, with councillors Hodge and Gord Lovegrove opposed.

Initial consideration for rezoning a property at 252 Temple Court in Rutland was also approved.

That project, located between Nickel and Kneller roads, includes 17 three-storey townhouse units.
