(a) Masthead International Properties Limited - Report PD-80-90
Mark Pengelly, 35 Nelson Street West, Bowmanville, L1C lE4, a two year
resident of the area, commented that several neighbours are displeased
with the density of this project. He questioned the Committee on the
status of this application as it relates to fll"e safety and easements.
Darlene Potter, 28 Hunt Street, BowmanviDe, lJC 2W7, a two year
resident of this area, noted several concerns:
- opposition to the density of the project
- all exits to Hunt Street before traffic can disperse to other areas
- these lands are environmentally protected
- the project is not compatible with the existing residential development
- the inadequacy of the school to accommodate more children
No one spoke in support of this application.
Allan Littlewood, Pr-itlPJIt, Masthead Intern..t;"",,' Properties Limited,
145 Front Street East, Toronto, M5A 1E3, informed the Committee that
since his fll"st application was presented to the Committee in March,
1989, the proposal has been reduced from 650 to 615 dwelling units and 6
acres of land have been added to the proposal. The developer has been
in constant liaison with Regional and Town officiaIs in an endeavour to
correct defIciencies. In his opinion, 92% of the lots conform with zoning
by-law requirements. A Traffic Impact Analysis has been undertaken and
is available for perusal. Mr. Littlewood stated that time is of the essence
and is hoping to resolve all issues with the Town in the shortest possible
time in order to avert a Municipsl Board hearing.
(b) Paul and Lisa Langley - Report PD-81-90
Noone spoke in opposition to or in support of this application.
Paul Langley, R.R.#2 Blackstock, LOB lBO, made reference to paragraph
5.1 of the report and stated that the Iands are not suitable for
agricultural designation. He made reference to paragraph 8.4 and noted
that it is the responsibility of the gravel pit operation to provide a buffer
between this area and his property. Referring to paragraph 9.2 of the
report he noted that the elevation of the Iands do not vary from the
existing road grade.
