Some Fredericton councillors are at odds over a proposal to remove the opportunity for public comments during the city's planning advisory committees as part of wider changes aimed at making the committee more technical in focus.
Fredericton city council passed a bylaw on Feb. 26 to allow residential developments in two commercial zones. It will promote smaller units nearby to amenities like schools.
Fredericton may soon allow what it calls "workforce housing" on commercial properties in a bid to help address housing affordability and car-free living.
