Six new homes are proposed for a Rutland lot on which a single house was built in 1944.

The three-storey townhomes are planned for 920 Rutland Rd, near Rutland Recreation Park, a middle school, and a high school.听

鈥淭hese three-storey buildings have a distinctly modern residential personality,鈥 the application to the city states.听

The redevelopment is typical of many new projects in which single-family homes and duplexes are being demolished to make way for higher-density housing.听

Since the project conforms to sa国际传媒's official community plan, the NDP government does not allow for the holding of public hearings so interested members of the neighborhood could offer their views.听

City council is expected to approve the development at Monday's regular meeting.听
