Permanent residential areas, om the other hand, demand at least 15,000 square feet of land and 1,300 square feet of ground floor area. Council moved to abandon the restrictions on eight sub- divisions on the island, but by doing so, will impase the normal residential restrict- ions. The decision means that a builder is free to build a permanent home on the island, provided he meets the standards set down in the _ building bylaw. Although such restrictions were imposed by the province; Mayor Lawrence -- Malcolm said he's talked to the authorities who told him it was up to the municipality to rezone any or all of such lands as they desired. Most subdivisions on the island have a number of lots with permanent homes, sea- * sonal homes, and empty lots, according to a quick survey Also Pumps] "ad of the information available to councillors Monday night. Any permanent residences already established but not meeting the requirements would not be affected.
