G.P.& A Minutes - 3- March 16, 1992 PUBLIC MEETINGS CONT'D. (a) Valiant Property Management - Report PD-61-92 - the purpose and effect of this application is to permit the development of an 8082 m2 (87,000 sq. ft.) commercial shopping centre, including retail, personal and fmancial uses. Judy CampbeD, 25 Bridle Court, Courtice, LlE 2B1, advised that the proposed development is located directly behind her property and within 8' of her side yard. She noted that, although she would not be opposed to the location of a quiet type business establiaIunent, the proposed drive- through restaurant will generate offensive smells, noises and unsanitary conditions due to the storage of garbage. She referred to her letter previously forwarded to the Town wherein she expressed the following concerns: - Vehicular and pedestrian safety because there will be only one access from King Street; - The location of an entrance onto Townline; - A dark alleyway at the rear of the plaza; and - Request for the installation of an 8' sound barrier wall. Morris r .....iluln. 1417 Nash Road, Courtice, LlE 189, referred to a letter that he previously sent to the Town in opposition to this development because the Site Plan indicates there will be an extension of Bridle Court onto his property which is 550' deep. He was never notified of this extension. Lucy N"rejadIik, 10 Bridle Court, Courtice, L1E 2B1, appeared on behalf of the residents of Bridle Court and referred to this area as being the "gateway to Newcastle". She feels that gas stations, plazas and restaurants do not properly represent the image of the Town of Newcastle. She concurred with Judy Campbell's remarks and requested the Committee to keep the interests of the residents in mind when making a fmal decision. Noone spoke in support of this application. Bob Hann, :p..,.,.;,jPnt, Valiant Propert.)' Management, 177 Nonquon Road, 20th Floor, Osbawa, L1G 3S2, informed the Committee that he has been the owner of Kingsway Plaza since 1978 and has been in the family building business in this ares since 1953. He referred to this 87,000 sq. ft. proposal as being reasonable, realistic and sensible. Speed bumps and 180 degree lighting will be put in place in the back of the plaza to reduce vehicular speed and vandalism. He has commissioned an architect to relocate the drive-in restaurant to the corner of the site. An accoustical engineer will be hired to prepare a sound attenuation study. Garbage enclosures will be rodent and odour proof. Traffic, civil, soil and electrical engineers have been contacted. He advised that this plaza will generate approximately $200,000 in taxes yearly to the municipality. Although economic conditions are gloomy at this time, his forecast is that this proposal is good for the Town of Newcastle, specifically for Courtice residents. He feels that more focussed studies will satisfy the concerns of the surrounding residents. ") n-' ,.. u:; - - . G.P.& A Minutes - 4- March 16, 1992 PUBLIC MEETINGS CONT'D.
