Mr. Paul Michiels, County Planner, appeared before Council and reviewed the attached
report.
A number of persons were present with questions regarding the subject application.
Ms. Linda White asked if copies of the storm water management report would be
provided to the area residents. Mr. Michiels advised that preparation of the study would
be the responsibility of the applicant. Once the study has been completed, copies would
be available to the public for viewing. Mr. Michiels directed Ms. White to file a request
with his office if she wishes to be notified when the study becomes available.
Mr. and Mrs. Matthynssens, 55 James Avenue, had questions with respect to any
changes to the roadways.
In response to another question, Mr. Michiels advised that it was his understanding that all
structures would be single family dwellings.
Mr. Bob Franklin, North Street, had a question with respect to roadway widening.
Mr. Jason Walters, 3 Fairview, had questions with respect to the value of his property. He
was concerned that the size of the proposed lots, being substantially
smaller than his property, would possibly decrease the value of his property. Mr. Michiels responded that
he could not comment with respect to the value of his property, however noted that the frontages
of the proposed lots would range from approximately 20 metres. The more northerly
development would be considered by County Council, rather than Town Council, and those lots
would have frontages of approximately 15 metres.
Mr. Murray Sandham, James Avenue, questioned whether or not the properties abutting
his property would be fenced by the developer.
There was a question with respect to storm water management. Those present were
advised by Council that once the application is approved, the developer is mandated to
complete the necessary work. Mr. Michiels noted that we would have to see what was
16� recommended in the storm water management report.
