and that's really my only issue with our viewcones. i just wish the city would consider special considerations where the viewcones could be infridged upon.
best example is MNP tower. if only it were a mere 25 ft taller, it would have added some contrast between Shaw and the Fairmont.
i was just reading today that Telus will pay the city a measly 10K a year for the encroachment the overhangs will produce along seymour and richards. why not have a similar policy for viewcones?

i don't like this 'red line' the city has drawn with respect to this policy. instead, i would prefer they investigate the merits of each proposal and charge appropriately if they choose to go that route. some proposals warrant the discussion, at the very least.
