1. BACKGROUND
1.1 Orono Fish and Hunt Club is the owner of the municipal property identified as 3292
and 3296 Concession Road 7. The property is situated immediately west of an
unopen road allowance identified as Part 1 on Plan 40R-27350. The Director of
Engineering Services has determined that the unopen road allowance is no longer
necessary for public use. Orono Fish and Hunt Club has advised the Municipality
that they wish to acquire ownership of the adjacent road allowance for the purposes
of constructing a noise berm.
1.2 On September 19, 2011, Council approved the recommendations of Report EGD-
033-11. The Report recommended that staff process the application to legally close
by by-law and convey that portion of the unopen road allowance into private
ownership.
1.3 Since Council approved the road closure and conveyance in principle, all
departments, agencies and provincial and federal agencies have been circulated
with the notice to close the road allowance. No objections were received. The
Municipality undertook an appraisal of the road allowance. The parcel was
appraised by the Municipality's appraiser at a value of $11,424. The applicant is
agreeable to this price and has made this payment to the Municipality.
1.4 In accordance with Municipal policy, a public meeting has been scheduled for
February 27th to give the public an opportunity to speak for or against the road
closure.
1.5 In accordance with the recommendations of Report EGD-033-11, staff recommend
that Part 1 on Plan 27350 be conveyed to Orono Fish and Hunt Club for the
appraised value of $11,424.00.
2. CONCLUSION
2.1 It is recommended that subject to any input received at the Public Meeting, Council
authorize the closure of the subject road allowance and convey the subject lands
into private ownership for the appraised value of $11,424.00.
