PUBLIC HEAR!tiK;S
Joan Kingston, G.M. Sernas & Associates, 110 Scotia Court, Unit 41, Whitby,
Ontario, LlN 8Y7, appeared on behalf of the applicant, who, at the time of
submission of the application, was not aware of the necessity for an Official
Plan amendment. The legal non conforming duplex presently on this site is not
structurally sound and therefore the development of a six-unit apartment building
would help to reduce the rental shortage crisis in this area.
c) Schickedanz Brothers Ltd. - Report PD-236-89.
.
Gordon Barrie, R.R. 14, Bowmanville, Ontario, who was born and raised in this
area, noted that the land adjacent to this proposal is presently being farmed
and that SOper Creek is a natural barrier between agricultural and urban
development. He reiterated that agricultural land is not suitable for urban
development.
Marianne Brown, 19 Barley Mill Crescent, Bowmanville, Ontario, LIC 4E6, expressed
concern with this application because too many residential development proposals
have been approved in the past.
Harry Dean, 13 Barley Mill Crescent, Bowmanville, Ontario, expressed opposition
to this project and referred to a letter submitted by his spouse, Christine
Dean, to the Clerk's Department on October 2, 1989.
Martin Mlstert, Lamb's Road, Bowmanville, Ontario, LIC 4E6, a resident of the area
for 29 years, owns and operates a green house business directly accross the street
from this proposal. He feels that the area cannot adequately accommodate such
sudden population growth and the after effects therefrom.
Richard Dubeau, R.R. 14, Bowmanville, Ontario, LIC 3K5, advised the Committee that
he owns a 19.27 acre parcel of land in this area and represents a coalition of
15 major land owners who own approximately 95% of the surrounding land and who
will be submitting to the Town of Newcastle an application for development in
the near future.
. NO one spoke in support of the application.
Gary Templeton, Templeton-Lepek Ltd., 5050 Dufferin St., Suite 232, Downsview,
Ontario, M3H 5T5, appeared on behalf of the applicant and displayed a preliminary
plan of subdivision for the benefit of the Committee. The developnent will
be oomprised of single family detached and semi-detached dwellings. A Storm
Water Management Study will be undertaken pursuant to the approval of the Official
plan Amendment. The goal of the developer is to contribute towards a more
affordable housing product.
Bob Schickedanz, Schickedanz Brothers Ltd., 3311 Bayview Ave., Suite 105,
Willowdale, Ontario M2K lG4, emphasized that the reason for inflated house prices
is that there are not enough homes on the market to satisfy the need. Further,
the developer must take certain financial risks in order to undertake a project
of this size. Mr. Schickedanz is willing to discuss planning requirements and
overcome deficiencies.
