1.0 BACKGROUND
1.1 On March 5, 2007, Council approved the recommendations of Report EGD-028-
07. The Report recommended that a portion of a road allowance be legally
closed by by-law, declared surplus and conveyed into private ownership.
1.2 In accordance with the recommendations of Report EGD-028-07 the road
allowance was appraised by a certified appraiser for the value of $10,000.00.
1.3 Bell Canada has advised the Municipality that existing telephone utility services
are located within the subject road allowance. An easement will be required over
the subject lands to facilitate access and maintenance of the existing telephone
services.
2.0 BACKGROUND
2.1 Mr. Dennis Ebbs is the owner of the municipal property identified as 97 Mill
Street. The property is situated immediately adjacent to an uno pen road
allowance that the Director of Engineering Services has determined is no longer
necessary for public use and that is also not in the best interest of the
Municipality to continue to maintain as road allowance. Mr. Dennis Ebbs'
driveway is located on the road allowance, and Mr. Ebbs has advised the
Municipality that he wishes to acquire ownership of the subject lands.
3.0 CONCLUSION
3.1 It is recommended that subject to any input received at the Public Meeting, that
Council authorize the closure of the subject road allowance, declare the land
surplus and convey the subject lands into private ownership for the appraised
value of $10,000.00, subject to the condition that the easement deemed
necessary by the Director of Engineering Services to facilitate telephone utility
services is granted to Bell Canada.
