Houses don't meet permit guidelines

Oops.

One builder in Cochrane built semi-detached dwellings on four lots in Heartland, only to discover those types of homes were not under the types of houses approved in that district.

The builder is seeking an amendment to land use bylaw 22/2015 for the houses already built in Heartland, which currently already has families residing in the homes, to redesignate the land use from Residential High Density Multi-Unit Dwelling District (R-M) to Residential Single and Two-Dwelling District (R-2), to allow the houses.

Cochrane town…
