(a) Fred Simpkins, 18 Prince Rupert Drive, Bowmanville, LIE 1Z5 - re:
Report PD-165-90, circulated a letter to members of the Committee
advising that, prior to Mrs. Wood's formal application, he approached the
Town and was assured that the Town would recommend denial of any
application regarding land severance. He then purchased Lots #2 and #3
and has since sold both of these lots. He appeared before the Committee
to represent Robert Grier, purchaser of Lot #2. He was authorized by
the Health Department to situate the septic beds for Lots #2 and #3 in
front of the dwellings and, if this severance is approved, the buffer
between Lots #1 and #2 may be lost resulting in a possible health
hazard to Mr. Grier. He concluded that Mr. Grier has instructed him to
pursue this matter to its fullest and request an O.M.B. Hearing, if
necessary. He requested that the Committee table this report pending an
investigation by CLOCA and that the recommendations in the report be
denied.
(b) Klaus Anselstetter, R.R.#2, Bowmanville, LlC 3K4, re: Report
PD-165-90, who owns property diagonally across from this site and whose
father's residence is adjacent to this proposal, reiterated concerns
expressed at previous meetings which include health, the environment,
water quality and wildlife. He referred to this proposal as being totsIly
unacceptable.
(c) Dave DeSyIva, 4950 Yonge Street, 19th Floor, Toronto, M2M 6E9, concurs
with the recommendations contained in Report PD-196-90 and requested
clarifIcation on the Hydro Levy. He advised that the project is to
commence in late Fall.
(d) George Armoyan, 1280 Finch Avenue West, Suite 710, Downsview,
M3J 3K6 - re: Report PD-196-90, concurred with Mr. DeSylva's
presentation and requested that the requirement for a road allowance be
decreased from 18 metres to 14 metres.
(e) Julian Rowan, R.R.#1, Newtonville, LOA lJO - re: Report PD-198-90,
appeared before the Committee and requested that his comments be
deferred to SAGA.
(0 Katherine GuseJle, c/o SAGA, R.R.#1, Orono, LOB lMO, appeared on
behalf of SAGA (Save the Ganaraska Again) Committee and circulated a
letter wherein she requests that the ReidJReynaert plan of subdivision be
deferred. The amendment to the Durham Regional OflIcial Plan required
for execution of this plan of subdivision is under appeal at the Ontario
Municipal Board SAGA's position is now and always has been that
development in the headwaters area is premature. She referred to
Condition Number 17 pertaining to well interference policy in the
Minister of the Environment's decisions on Report #38 and questioned
whether it would actua1ly provide redress for a neighbour, under a legal
hearing. She stated that Condition Number 25 highlights the area where
this report fails to address all the issues.
