The report points out that
within the village’s present boun-
daries there are. 533 dwellings
with space available for 250 to
300 more houses,

The possible addition of
about 530 houses would fill the
buildable residential Jand at av-

Hights and sidewalks and by the

planting of trees.

. The town planners say Cas-
tlegar's street system needs
improvement in two ways. A
number’ of residential streets
should be replanned to make
better use of hilly tand and ob-
tain sultable building land,

Internal traffic should be
channelled on well-paved streets
which can serve as traffic col-
lectors.

The major recommendation
made about streets is to reroute.
traffic from 5th Ave. to-3rd Ave,
and to prevent traffic from pas-
sing between the two main
school sites. "The rerouting of
collector traffic should. be
‘brought about by closing the sec-
tion of Sth Ave, between the two
school sites.”
