This is actually a development application, as the density is already allowed under the existing zoning. As such, this is a decision for the Development Permit Board, which is comprised of the deputy city manager, the director of planning, and the director of engineering.
Had this been a decision for council, it almost certainly would have been approved years ago under the Vision majority. I'm pretty sure this council has also unanimously approved every office project too, though Hardwick might have opposed or abstained on one or two. Either way, Fry wouldn't be the swing vote, as that role usually falls to Wiebe or Kirby-Yung (who are generally yes votes) or Boyle (who often opposes anything that has significant backlash).
