Trailers at Homes The topic of trailers left in driveways was addressed in the spring of 2010 and there has been no incident or complaints since.

Vacation Home Rentals One additional VHR application was completed by a new homeowner. Initially there was neighbourhood opposition but after the City approved the application there have been little activity and no complaints.

Ridge Townhome Deck Construction Issue In 2010 the Board discussed a new deck installation with two Ridge Townhome owners. There was concern that the deck infringed on another owner’s property. The Board referred the issue to the City building department.
