The Committee noted the contents thereof and were of the opinion that this clearly indicated the proposed severance is located in an "A" Zone. The Secretary was instructed to include the contents of this correspondence in the minutes. "Dear Sirs: Further to your inquiry of whether the two lots now owned by Mr. Battams are in the North or South one-half, I have examined my records and find that the old fence marking the Northerly limit of the original Battams property (as shown on the sketch of survey forwarded to me) marks the limit between the North and South one-half of Township Lot 31, Concession 7. Both properties are therefore in the South one-half of Lot 31 and presumably in the agricultural zone according to the sketch illustrating By -Law 1592. Assuming that the Southerly- parcel is the subject lands in your application, this parcel would therefore be approximately only 104 feet south of the Southerly limit of Lhe R-2 zone: I hope the above is helpful. Yours very truly, (sgnd) "M.D. Brown" Mr. Lycett requested that this application be adjourned until such time as further instructions are received from his clients.

(1) The land is'generally rolling, sandy in texture and covered in egergreens. As such it is eminently -suitable as recreational or open space land; (2) AreLs of the'farm,where flat areas or plateaus existed had been cleared for agricultural purposes; (3) In`regard to the property being retained by Joseph Smith Jr., a large dam had been constructed and waters were flooding into this dam which will create a pond of some 2 or 3 acres in size. Quite obviously each heir of the estate was desirous of developing his land.as he saw fit; (4) A large percentage of what had obviously been a Christmas tree plantation hdd trees so large that they would no longer be. suitable for Christmas trees and would be better classified as reforestration; (5) The proposed line of division was regular in that the farm had been divided in the centre, except,that the western half of the property (owner Jacqueline Emily Cooper did have a tongue of land running easterly from the west_ half into the east half immediately to the south of the 8th concession. This tongue of land gave access to the head waters of a stream and made this land division reasonable and sensible in the circumstances. After it rose.the stream flowed over the boundary and into the dam mentioned above; (6) It was clear upon inspection that the topography corroberated NIr. Cooper's allegation that the tongue of land had been granted for purposes of access to water; The Committee: (1) Perused a.Plan of Survey prepared by M.D. Drown OLS;, Bowmanville, Ontario, dated May 21, 1969, numbered 69023; (2) Referred to the minutes of meeting of September 13, 1969 and noted the Mr. Cooper had verbally agreed on behalf of his i his brother-in-law to a restrictive clause in the deeds, Lo be as follows: (a) Deed from John Albert Smith to Jac ueline Emil Coope "Subject to the restriction, limitation and condition that the 3.08 acre parcel of land shall be deemed to be part of the 71.42 acre parcel, in spite of the fact that it is technically severed by an unopened road allowance."

W. Kay Lycett B.A., Barrister & Solicitor, Orono, Ontario, and Mr. Jan Ochonski, Orono, Ontario, the proposed purchaser appeared in support of this application. No other person appeared in support of, or<in opposition to this application. The Secretary presented the following correspondence from ° ' I,ir. Horace Best, R.R. #2, Orono, 0 tario, dated September 22, 1969. The Committee noted the contents thereof and the Secretary was instructed to include this letter in the minutes of the meeting. " in regard to -the above application, I wish to bring the following facts fo'the attention of your Committee. (1) The Committee's app2'oval of this application would automatically establish the potential for a number of building lots, subject, of course, to an approved plan of sub -division. These lots are shown on a proposed plan of sub- division, dated June 5, 1968 which I believe, has been presented to your Committee by Mr. Ochonski. This plan shows the easterly limit of parcel No. 3 situated 280' west of Main Street. (2) A study plan of p-toposed sub -division of part of Lot 29, Con 5 (being part of The Village of Orono) prepared by Marshall, Macklin, Monaghan Ltd., dated Mar.` 102 1966 and nurrrbered P66-4, shows the easterly limit of a 66' street allowance (running parallel to Main St.) located 280' west of Main Street. (3) The north boundary of parcel No. 3 abouts farm land owned by the undersigned. This letter is neither in support of nor in opposition to Mr. Staples' application for severance but rather is an expression of concern relating to the possible use of the subject land once it has been severed from Mrs. Staples' farm land and is acquired by Mr. Ochonski, the proposed purchaser. It is my considered opinion that the abutting farm lands -are well suited for the residential expansion<of The Village of Orono and that in the foreseeable future will be required as such. This opinion is supported by the report of Marshall, Macklin, Monaghan Ltd. of a planning survey for the Village of Orono and prepared in March of 1966. While it is possible that any objection to the use of the subject land and of adjoining lands owned by Mr. Ochonski, does not concern your Committee, I feel any objection to the Proposed use of the land should at least be brought to the -attention of your Committee as early as possible. I, therefore, wish to advisa that, in the interest of good planning as well as personal interest, I am prepared to register an objection to any proposal which Mr. Ochonski may set forth whereby a dwelling might be constructed in such a location as would prohibit or interfere with any street that may be required for the future development of the general area as shown on the aforementioned°drawing No. P-66-4. Yours truly, (sgd. Horace R. Best" Page 12 Meeting of Committee'of Adjustment October 1, 1969: As a matter of record the Committee visited this property on Friday'September 26, 1969 and noted the following facts: '(1) The general topography was that the land sloped from north to south in a gentle fall and a gully ran parallel to Main Street through which spring freshets would run southerly across the subject land; (2) The proposal by Mr. Ochonski showed that a number of house lots would be in the path of this water run off area; (3) The Committee had been made aware of a letter filed by Mr. Horace Best an abutting owner and asked him to accompany them on their inspection'to indicate on the ground the subject of his concern; (4) Mr. Best mentioned the fact that the Police Village some years ago had had a study plan of proposed sub- division prepared`by Marshall, i• iacklin,Monaghan Limited, Ontario Land Surveyors, 1480 Don Mills Road, Don Mills Ontario dated March 10, 1966, dwg. No. P-66-4. A Possible road pattern and lot arrangement was shown on such study plan. The,relevant part of the Plan reads as follows: " The north south road has been located to follow the existing depression in the area, thus facilitating storm drainage and permitting the siting of houses to advan�age on the higher ground. This road is shown carried to the north and south boundaries of thelparcel to allow for possible future`expansion. In`the case that such is not required, the layout can be modified to yield additional building space. Branch- ing off this road'to the ea.st, is a cul-de-sac to utilize the steeply sloping south east corner of the area, and 'to the west, two loop roads to develop the western portion to the Vi 11 age 'boundary.' Access to the area is from Main Street by .two roads, one to the north and one as a ,westerly extension of n IvIillso' Hill Drive. The latter is located between tWo existing houses, and would necessitate the removal of an existing barn. It has been indicated that such an access is feasible, and that there would be no objection to the removal of the barn. This road has been carried through to the western boundary of the lands to allow for possible westerly expansion, if required for future development. The study plan shows that'approximately 114 residential building lots can be provided in the area. The minimum lot size has been set at 72500 square feet, a reasonable standard where only a municipal watersupplyis available." The Committee compared the Plan of Survey now presented with the Study Plan and noted that the proposed Ochonski east - west development interfered 'with the recommended north -south development proposed in the Marshall, Macklin and Monaghan plan. The Committee asked Mr. Ochonski to explain what arrangements he had made to present adjoining owners from being land locked or north south development storm drainage being obstructed if this severance was granted. 'Mr. Ochonski replied that he had made -arrangements with Mr. Staples to grant him access easterly out to Main Street and that he would be willing to have a Surveyor ensure that no water run off problem was generated by his proposals by providing adequate facilities re drainage. The Committee: (1) indicated that they would bring this proposal to the attention of Mr. Horace Best the abutting owner for hiS information; (27 Mr.`Ochonski was advised that the Committee felt they should consider the pre-existing Plan and they might -make requirements to reconcile the two approaches. This application was adjourned for further consideration.

Kay Lycett B.A., Agent, Barrister & Solicitor, Orono, Ontario, Conley James Battams, Owners, Verna Muriel Battams, Leskard, Ontario, for part of Lot 31, Con Vll, Township of Clarke, Submission No. /3 i5y-6y-i F3 As business arising from minutes of past meetings this application was presented for further consideration. The Committee considered the following facts:. (1) Mr. and Mrs. Battams acquired their entire holding under two separate deeds, the first on January 12, 1962 and the second property which lies adjacent to the south on August 10, 1965 and registered as N26740 on that date; (2) A covering letter from their Solicitor dated August 119 1965 stated in part "this was registered as a separate transaction and you:may sell it separately when or if you wish." This establishes without doubt that there is definite documentary evidence of prior intention to sever. The sub -division control by-law #1494 which came into effect on 15th November 1965 has_. created the problem which theynowseek to redress. The Committee further noted that correspondence from M.D. Brown OLS., 121 Queen Street, Bowmanville, Ontario, dated September 23, 196i_restablished that the subject lands are situated in an "A" Zone, thereby removing all doubt as to the exact location. _
