See Recommendation #1
1. Phil McMullen, Pickering Village, advised that he was impressed with the report but not in
agreement with the solicitors comments on radius. The statute does not state a maximum but
a minimum of 120 metres. He requested Council maintain flexibility and not accept report
thereby encasing 120 metres.
2. David Steele, 966 Timmins Gardens, stated that the comments made by the solicitor on
radius are incorrect. He requested that Council defer this matter in order that a meeting could
be held with Community Associations to review the report. He recommended that signs on
development sites be update regularly and that notices be increased on Planning items.
3. Paul Kelland, Grenoble Blvd., stated that the radius is too small and should be doubled and
that Council should have the option to increase circulation radius if they deem the application
is of great importance to their ward.
