Onni Agrees to Second Public Hearing on North Vancouver Safeway Site

North Shore Outlook – Developer Onni agrees to second public hearing on North Vancouver Safeway site.

Developer Onni Group will return to North Vancouver city hall for a second go at a public hearing on the company’s divisive Safeway site proposal, after the first hearing was tainted by accusations of bullying and impropriety on all sides.

Onni’s vice-president of development Beau Jarvis made the announcement Monday, citing the “outpouring of support” he said the company received over the holidays for its 13th Street and Lonsdale Avenue condo-tower proposal.

“To be quite blunt, we got a bit of an earful over the holidays from people who had publicly expressed support for the project,” Jarvis said in a press release Monday.

“Their position was simple – ‘we want the project, we went out and supported the project and Onni should not abandon the project until the council has formally said yes or no’. At the end of the day, we could not ignore those voices,” he continued.
