Milt Dakin, Chairman, N.C.S.P.B., reviewed the Board's Report
NCSPB- 03 -86, with Council. In conclusion, Mr. Dakin urged
Council to appoint a Council and a staff representative to
sit on a Joint Committee to prepare a fair policy, relative
to park size and facilities, area of service and community
needs for the overall Town. The Board recommends denial
to the Tyrone request for a capital grant for playing field
expansion and to the request of the Bowmanville Lawn Bowling
Club for an operating grant. Mr. Dakin listed Tyrone's
facilities and mentioned that Enniskillen had no facilities.
The Lawn Bowling Club is perceived to be a private club and
granting their request would encourage other private clubs
to make requests for grants. The Town needs to co- ordinate
the Planning and Community Services Departments with new
development.
Michael Majeste, 43 Cloverfield Street, Bowmanville, representing
the ratepayers of the Schleiss & Holland Subdivision, was present
to object to the red line revision of the Subdivision, to allow
Townhouse Development adjacent to his lot. When he purchased
his lot in May 1985, he was told that the land adjacent to his lot
would be parkland. A large portion of the residents were told the
same thing from various agents. Mr. Majeste asked Council to
direct him and assist him in the proper format of the rezoning
by -laws. He requests that Council rezone the subject lands to
single family dwellings with 12 metre frontages, that copies
of all reports coming from and going to Council be sent to
him, and that when a subdivision plan is approved, that all
phases adjacent to the subdivision be clearly marked so the
prospective buyers are aware of future development.
Mr. Glen Easton, Planner with Procter & Redfern, noted that
the zoning for this development has been in place since 1984.
A review of the land use by -law would have given the purchaser
some idea of what was to take place. The staff report supports
Townhouse Development. However, if Council supports single
family development, then his client is willing to modify his
proposal, provided that Council send out the Notice of Public
Hearing for the rezoning within the next 2 or 3 days; have
the Hearing after 30 days at a Special Meeting, or if it
Council Minutes - 3 - May 26, 1986
coincides at a regular meeting and after the public hearing
3 readings of the by -law is to take place on the same day
allowing the 35 day waiting period to commence and that
Council assigns a credit to the developer to compensate for
costs associated with this delay. Mr. Easton also wants
assurance that the residents will not object and cause
further delays.
Mr. Marc Sanderowitz, Krauss & Assoc., speaking for Jim DeWitt
informed Council that an agreement to purchase the E. Pollard
lands in Courtice has been entered into. The intention is to
submit a Condominium Plan with a start date of August 1st.
However, the current Site Plan Agreement needs to be amended.
Larry Krauss, Krauss & Associates, representing Birchdale
Developments Inc., was present to answer questions.
Birchdale has used the artist concept plan as proposed by
Mr. Pollard. However, the Town houses will be omitted. It
will be a 7 storey condominium development.
Mr. W. Manson, W.D.M. Consultants, was present to ask Council
to support the Town Planner's recommendation to refer his
proposal back to staff for further dialogue with the applicant.
He is dismayed that the General Purpose and Administration
Committee received the report and recommended denial of the
proposal due to the concerns of the ratepayers. To address
some of the ratepayers' concerns, traffic counts can be taken
and a careful selection of tenant mix can be undertaken to
avoid the area being used as a "hang- out ". Mr. Manson has
hired a retail market analyst. He requests that Council
allow him the benefit of further dialogue to address these
concerns.
Jim Fetcheson, Chairman, Solina Community Hall Board, was
present on behalf of the Board to thank Council for the
Capital Grant which has been partially used to repair the
steel exterior doors and washroom renovations. Mr. Fetcheson
invited Council to Solina Day, Saturday, June 14th.
