Public Meeting - 50 Bennett Avenue

The City of St. John’s has received an application to rezone a portion of 50 Bennett Avenue (former I. J. Samson School) from the Institutional (INST) Zone to the Residential Medium Density (R2) Zone.  The purpose of the rezoning is to enable the development of 20 townhouses. An amendment to the St. John’s Municipal Plan will be required.  The remainder of the site will be developed for seniors apartment buildings which are a permitted use and will not require a rezoning.
