presentation... GSP.pdf
Mr. Brent Howey appeared before Council and noted his concerns regarding issues
relative to surface water.
Mr. Green commented that the storm water management area would be immediately
behind Mr. Howey. That would provide the continuance of all the future storms coming
down from upstream. The storm water management report would identify conditions and
requirements. The Director of Operations and his staff would review the report.
Mr. Howey requested he be part of the drainage discussion.
Mr. Green commented that it might be appropriate to have a meeting with the property
owners, once we get to the details.
Ms. Wendy Howey commented regarding the extra development from several years ago,
noting the berm was charged to the residents of North Street and some of the subdivision
residents. She asked if that berm will be removed, noting she did not want it removed.
She also asked about the pond in the back.
The CAO noted that it will be addressed in the storm water management plan.
Mr. Green commented that it's his expectation that the pond will come out, and the
Conservation Authority has commented they would like it out as well.
Mr. Ray McLennan appeared before Council with a number of questions and comments.

With respect to questions from Mr. McLennan, the CAO commented that the public areas
will ultimately be turned over to the municipality to look after to varying degrees. In terns
of multi -family, we will look at fencing as a site specific, and normally we do provide
fencing as required for multti-family dwellings.
Mr. Evans, County Planning, noted that she would endeavor to get answers to Mr.
McLennan's questions regarding County of Oxford questions.
Mr. Mark Vandepoele, 39 Tanager, appeared before Council noting his concerns
regarding increased traffic flow and the intersection. He noted that there are only two
outs, and one is Tanager, and he does not feel it can handle the increased traffic. Mr.
Vandepoele also noted his concerns regarding lot sizes, especially for those abutting
present properties.
Mr. Green commented that the lots are slightly larger than the minimum required, but he
could review it with his client to see if there can be further modification, prior to October
8th. He will advise the County Planning Department before the 8th.
Mr. Nigh, 62 North Street, appeared before Council noting his concerns regarding
devaluation of property. He questioned how many feet from the property line the station
would be, in the storm water management plan.
Mr. Green commented that he did not have a detailed design as of yet.
Opportunity was given for Council comment.
No other persons appeared in support of, or opposition to, the applications. The following
resolution was passed.
