City council has urged a developer building an apartment building on Dilworth Mountain to take neighbourhood concerns over parking seriously.

The second phase of development at 777 Denali Drive will construct a 79-unit, three-storey apartment on top of an existing two-storey townhouse development containing 10 units.

However, residents living in townhouses across from the project, built during the first phase of the development, have concerns about parking on the private road that separates them.

Coun. Mohini Singh visited the site and noted the road is narrow and difficult for vehicles to turn around on because of visitor parking spots.
