CARRIED
Mr.BJ>yan Lowe presented a brief with reference to the re-'
zoning of a parcel of residential and open-space land to that of
com~ercial zoning. The land in question is part of Lot 24,
Broken Front. Range 3, north-east part of Frenchman"t.s Bay,
Township of Pickering.
His main objection was the rezoning of residentially zoned lands
to what would permit the establishment of Marinas. He aSked
Council to give the matter their very serious consideration before
appnoving the recommendation of the Planning..Board.
Council, after considerable discussion, felt that since most
members were not fully familiar with the situation, should have
further opportunity to study it, and thus it was recommended that
this whole matter be deferred until August 23rd. 1965, at which
time Council will give other interested parties an opportunitym
be heard on this subject.
It was also suggested that notices be sent to the abutting land
ownG~s - Planning Department to mail notices to all parties
concerned.

and l1r. B. Henderson be heard. CARRIED
Mr~ J. MacNeal. who is a resident of Fairport Street on which
the ¡proposed Baytona Marina is to be located, explained that the
work being done on the site of this Marina has created many
objectionable situations, all of which affect the living conditions
of the residents in the area. He complained about the bad road
conditions, caused by unusually heavy traffic, parking problems.
and the roads being blocked by cars belonging to customers of
the said Marina. Also, drainage problems have been created by
work which has been done to date on the Marina property.
It was the feeling of both Mr. MacNeal and Mr. Henderson that
the owners of the Marina were making the conditions unbearable
intentionally. with hope that this would force these residents
out of their homes and thus be forced to sell.

Engineer to examine roads and give a report on

parking of cars on Fairport Street.
