Report:
RmOtution # C-591-81:
THAT the 2etteA 4Aom MA. W. Kay Lycett, Q.C. ,
dated May 7, 1981, Aeganding Lot 5, Recur, Range,
Uock X, Orono (Coatham) be A 4nAed to the
Di&eetoA og Public Wonky 4ok a AepoAt to the
Public Wonk6 Committee".
In March, 1981, a request was received, from Mr. W. Kay Lycett,
Q.C. , acting on behalf of Mr. K.W. Coatham, that the Town give
consideration to the closure and conveyance of a portion of the
road allowance, defined above, and a pathway which led into the
Orono Cemetery.
Staff recommended denial of the request due to the fact that the
pathway provided pedestrian access for visitors to the Cemetery,
as well as for schoolchildren of the area.
Mr. Lycett requested, further to the above denial, that the Town
reconsider the matter in that only the unopened portion of the road
allowance be closed and conveyed. On June 1, 1981, the writer made
an on-site review of the situation and it is felt that the closure
and conveyance, as requested, would not adversely affect the use of
the access to the Cemetery by pedestrians in the area, and, there-
fore, the Town could grant the revised requested, as outlined in
the letter from Mr. Lycett dated May 7, 1981. f�
